Reflections on investment illusions, capitalism, "mutual" funds, indexing, entrepreneurship, idealism, and heroes 

Throughout his legendary career, John Bogle - founder of the Vanguard mutual fund group and creator of the first index mutual fund - has helped investors build wealth the right way, while, at the same time, leading a tireless campaign to restore common sense to the investment world. A collection of essays based on speeches delivered to professional groups and college students in recent years, Don't Count on It is organized around eight themes: 

  • Illusion versus reality in investing 
  • Indexing to market returns 
  • Failures of capitalism 
  • The flawed structure of the mutual fund industry 
  • The spirit of entrepreneurship 
  • What is enough in business, and in life 
  • Advice to America's future leaders 
  • The unforgettable characters who have shaped his career 

Widely acclaimed for his role as the conscience of the mutual fund industry and a relentless advocate for individual investors, in Don't Count on It, Bogle continues to inspire, while pushing the mutual fund industry to measure up to their promise
