Jay Young Releases The Upside Of Oil And Gas Investing With ForbesBooks

Coming from a family that's been in the oil business for over 100 years, Jay R. Young is an industry expert who's identified a critical problem with traditional approaches to oil and gas investments—investors are often saddled with bad deals that have no running room or diversification. In his new book, Jay sets out to change the industry's "me first" landscape and offers investors an innovative solution that has the potential to help them receive their upside from prospective investments.

"After what amounted to years of searching for a better method of managing investments, which made sense both to the drilling company and investors, I realized the problem. In general, the industry was thinking of investors as money first rather than true partners," said Young.

The Upside of Oil and Gas Investing: How the New Model Works and Why It Puts the Old Model to Shame is available in bookstores and on Amazon today.
