Not to my knowledge - though plenty of others have.

This guy is very well known:

Though as I understand it he is a trader, not a Warren Buffett type accumulator.

Speaking of the Oracle, this is probably the best known book on him:

I was sure she hadn't, but one of my friends keeps saying she has! I'll have to put some money on it!!

For every book written on Porperty investing there would be one hundred written on Shares.

Start simple and then see where you want to go .

Darryl Guppy and Chris Tate are two popular Australian Authors but for a simple concise book on shares, I don't think you can go past Louise Bedfords "Trading Secrets"

You can find a list of Jan’s books on the somersoft website, in the company profile. http://www.somersoft.com.au/

I’m still looking for a copy of her first book, to add to my collection. but there are definitely no share books in the list! So I'd be quickly making some bets with your friend suggo.

The list goes like this:

Manual for Residential Property Investors – 1989

Building Wealth through Investment Property – 1992

The New Zealand Investor’s Guide to Making Money in Residential Real Estate – co written with Dolf De Roos – 1992

Building Wealth through Investment Property – New Zealand version, co-written with Dolf De Roos – 1992

Building Wealth in Changing Times – 1994

Building Wealth Story by Story – 1998

More Wealth from Residential Property - 2001

Yep, I can just imagine it if the Somers "sold out" to make a quick buck.

Such products as:

• The Jan Somers "Get Rich Quick Quide to Sharemarket Trading" $29.95.
• Ian Somers share trading systems analysis software; not PIA but SIA. $1295.
• The Jan Somers guide to dumping IP and buying diversived mutual funds. $29.95.
• The Jan and Ian Somers "HerbalSolutions-2000" MLM company. $89.95 Herbal Viagra sold thru high presure pyramid marketing.
• Jan Somers lends her name to "Super" scheme marketed by Wesuck or some other big bank/financial house. Then leads a OZ wide seminar series "telling" everyone who has ears why super is better than property. 1% commission for life!

I seem to remember an interview with Jan (in maybe the Courier or Sunday Mail) a couple of months ago where she said she had been investing in shares and was writing a book about it. Or maybe I was dreaming...

I hope she does write one - I think her property investing principles work well in shares as well.
