The Capitalist Code: It Can Save Your Life and Make You Very Rich! by Ben Stein (2017) Ex Libris Used Books

In his entertaining and informative style that has captivated generations, New York Times bestselling author, actor, and financial pundit refutes the current notion that the corporate system is rigged against “ordinary citizens” and explains how corporate stock ownership is the best one every devised to give workers and savers a route to financial comfort and security.
Most Americans have not inherited wealth or a successful business that could set them up for life. That means most Americans are destined to financial worry and concern for the rest of their lives. Right? Wrong! Ben Stein explains how the wonderful system of stock market capitalism can allow any American to build financial security. That’s what this book is all about: How to harness the incredible power of the US economy for enjoyment and security by being owners of profitable businesses–by consistent, conservative investment starting as young as possible in a diversified portfolio of stocks. And by being smart about it and not trying to beat the market–but just going up along with the market. That’s how small and large fortunes are made by smart people, by women and by men.
Not by trying to reinvent the wheel. Not by day-trading. Not by newsletters. Just by buying the indexes.
Today’s young people are taught by some politicians and media personalities that “…the system is rigged against you…”
That’s totally not true. The system of free market, stock market capitalism is rigged exactly FOR all who participate in it. The system that allows anyone with savings to be a part owner of the best businesses in the world is the greatest gift the any economy has ever had to bestow on workers.
