Praise for Wall Street's Buried Treasure
"Mr. Houtkin has provided the reader with a wonderful education on a great strategy that has the potential to turn a very limited risk investment into an extraordinarily high return. He makes the critical distinction between penny stocks and serious opportunities available to the low-priced value investor using important examples of his own methodology. Along the way, Houtkin provides valuable insight into some of the inner workings of Wall Street."
—BILL KRAFT, trader, speaker, trading coach, and author of Trade Your Way to Wealth
"Investing without Wall Street's Buried Treasure is like trying to live without food. Mr. Houtkin provides the facts of survival one needs to make money in any market. He reports the truth that no one else wants to state. This is a playbook for success; a forty-year apprenticeship is explained right between these covers! Take advantage of it."
—JAMES DEPELISI, president of the Stock and Bond Club of South Florida; founder of LDV Capital Management; finance professor at Broward Community College; and host of Investors Business Hour radio program

Chapter One
Overcoming the Conventional Wisdom
For the past four years I have spent the bulk of my time residing in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area. Unlike in the New York City area, where I was born, raised, and resided for most of my life, I began spending more time with people who are retired or semi-retired, having varying amounts of accumulated wealth, and who are quite anxious to talk about their financial and investment needs and wants. As an active trader and owner of a busy broker-dealer, I seldom had time to get involved with "average" retail clients, since that was never the primary focus of my business. Electronic trading and leveling the playing field on Wall Street occupied the majority of my time and thought.
Why Is It So Hard to Get Good Advice on Wall Street?
When looking back, what amazed me was how little the average guy seemed to know about the realities and inner workings of Wall Street or the financial community in general. Even acquaintances of mine who believed they were savvy and relatively informed about Wall Street realities soon found out otherwise after a brief "no-holds-barred" conversation.
