My Vast Fortune: An Investor's Fiscal Triumphs and Money Misadventures
Last updated October 31, 2026
Andrew Tobias uses his own financial life as the material for this book. He recounts early investments, business ventures, bad bets and lucky breaks, and admits to the mistakes that cost him money. Mixing memoir with advice, he draws lessons from each episode about saving, spending, low-cost investing and steering clear of tempting schemes. The tone is wry and self-deprecating, and the aim is to help ordinary readers handle money more sensibly.
