Value Averaging shows you how to make the buying and selling of investments nearly automatic, relieving you of emotional anxiety and the need for market-timing and stock picking skills; recommends investments best-suited for value averaging; shows you how to build real wealth easily and consistently over time; and demonstrates how to use both dollar cost averaging and value averaging for specific investment goals such as college tuition for your children or your own retirement.

""Today's Best Way to Invest.' The smartest strategy today is not to shun stocks-but to add money a little at a time. The most familiar such technique is dollar cost averaging.... But a lesser-known version called value averaging can get better results by forcing you to make an extra investment in a month when stocks are down and to invest less or actually a little less-when stocks advance."
Money Magazine

The New York Times
