Russ is among the select few veterans of the investment management professionals who are able to project academic insights faithfully, offer compelling investment advice―and write a page-turner."

"The Ten Trillion Dollar Gamble is a well-crafted book. At every turn, the author explains the rationale for including or excluding particular assets in a portfolio, especially as they react to higher interest rates, slower growth, and possible inflation. The investor who is worried about protecting his wealth in the coming decade(s) would do well to consider Koesterich’s advice."

"A helpful, methodical 'financial playbook' for realistic investors. Highly recommended for those planning to invest over the next five years or more. It is not easy to find books that combine debt macroeconomics with sound financial advice, but Koesterich manages it well."
