AI Stocks Made Simple: Why I Wrote This Book and Who It’s For

by David Lewis Wadley (The Price Bandit)

SEC-Accredited Investor

I wrote AI Stocks Made Simple: A Beginner’s Guide to AI Investing and Online Trading for the people who kept telling me the same thing:

“I want to invest in AI and the stock market, but nobody ever explained this stuff in a way I can actually understand.”

This book is my answer to that.

I designed AI Stocks Made Simple for true beginners—people who might be opening a brokerage account for the first time, who hear words like “Nvidia,” “QQQ,” “pre-IPO,” or “crypto” on CNBC and social media, but aren’t sure what to do with that information.

In this book, I walk you through:

What artificial intelligence really is—and what makes a stock an “AI stock”
The three main types of AI companies:
1. Those that build AI (software and models)
2. Those that power AI (chips, data centers, cloud)
3. Those that use AI to run better businesses

How to open an online trading account, deposit money safely, and buy your first stock
How much to invest, how often to invest, and how to avoid risking money you actually need

I show you simple, beginner-friendly strategies like buy-and-hold, dollar-cost averaging, and keeping a small, focused portfolio, because you don’t need complexity to build wealth—you need consistency and calm.

You’ll also learn:

How to pick good AI stocks you actually understand
Why watching CNBC every day (even 10–15 minutes) is like getting a free investing class
How to think about major AI sectors: chips, cloud computing, software, robotics, data & cybersecurity
Why data centers are the hidden backbone of the AI Revolution—and how utilities, copper, servers, cooling, and REITs all fit into that story

For readers who prefer a simple, diversified approach, I break down top AI ETFs such as:

QQQ, VOO, SOXX, SMH, BOTZ, ROBO, WCLD

so you can own baskets of leading AI companies without having to pick individual stocks.

Because the modern investor’s world is bigger than just stocks, I also include clear, beginner-level introductions to:

Crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana)
Pre-IPO investing using platforms like Hiive
TrumpRx, major pharmaceutical stocks (Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Pfizer, AstraZeneca)
Leading cannabis companies, including Curaleaf and others

Everything is written in plain language, so you can read it straight through without feeling lost or talked down to.

What makes this book different is the mindset behind it.

I’m not just teaching charts and tickers. I’m trying to build a bridge between culture and capital. That’s why I created Stock Soul—a blend of classic R&B vibes and financial wisdom. Just like soul music carried emotion, memory, and history, I want this book and my music videos to carry confidence, clarity, and long-term vision into your financial life.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I wish someone would just explain AI investing to me clearly.”
“I’m tired of feeling left out of the stock market.”
“I see AI everywhere, but I don’t know how to benefit from it.”

then AI Stocks Made Simple is my way of sitting down next to you and saying, “Let’s walk through this—calmly, step by step.”

You don’t need a finance degree.
You don’t need to start with a lot of money.
You just need a guide, a plan, and the courage to begin.
