When is enough really enough?

John Bogle, founder of the Vanguard Group of mutual funds and a giant figure in the world of finance (in 1999, Fortune Magazine named him one of the four "Investment Giants" of the 20th century) has written a compelling new book, Enough: True Measures of Money, Business and Life. Arthur Levitt, former commissioner of the SEC, wrote "Enough gives new meaning to the words 'commitment,' 'accountability,' and 'stewardship.' Bogle writes with clarity and passion, and his standards make him a role model for all of us. Enough is must-reading for millions of U.S. investors disenchanted by today's culture of greed, accounting distortions, corporate malfeasance, and oversight failure."
