scott: Great book to have in learning terminology for the stock market

Joe: The first half of the book gets five stars and is worth the cost. It will change the way you view your purchase of company stock. The second half is all math and not useful (to me, anyway). Even Buffett says he doesn't do the math, since, if the value of the company is not obvious, he doesn't bother. That's why I take a star off.

The book changed how I view a company stock and gave me all the information I need to make an intelligent decision. I highly recommend it.

Entropy: Looking for a book which explains how to invest long term with a margin of safety and learn how to find the intrinsic value of companies then this book is for you. It explains it all clearly in an easy digestible way that lets you follow each step. It uses the fundamental principles of Warren Buffet investing techniques proven over 100 years ago, and explains the stock market jargon, and pitfalls to look out for. If you are serious about investing in the long term by yourself, then this book will help.

Artsails1: The book came in quickly and was well wrapped in protective sealing bubble envelope. Warren Buffet is well known as a man with lots of investments. That's what made me want to read the book, to see what his strategies were and maybe a bio of how, when and where he started. It wasn't all that I hoped for. Maybe it's a generational thing, but the info in the book seemed dated. His strategy seems dated to. I think what worked for him was the economy he invested in was a different time then now. I have since ordered investing books by other authors and can see that different times call for different strategies.

Mike: I really enjoyed the book and gained some good insight into the world of stock investing as well as how to evaluate intrinsic value. I recommend reading this book any knowledge gained in investing is good knowledge.

Conan: Similar to my finance module on my course, but this is from the perspective of an investor as oppose to a business.

I can see how this can be confusing to someone who doesn’t already know about the finance concepts the book is talking about, but there are YouTube videos out there if your struggling.

Some things that this book shed light on was how to find certain accounting information on the web to help make decisions, and what to do with that information.

Overall not bad but if you don’t already have knowledge of accounting and finance then you are probably going to need to buy some books on those or watch allot of YouTube.

Connie: You're not buying this book for the number of pages. You paid for the ideas, and it's worth it. It gave me a totally new, but not newly invented, perspective in investing. Let me explain. In investing, we often examine P/E, EBIT, etc. but those should be mostly ignored. What's new here is to examine the company's ability to generate CASH. Very practical and unlike P/E, it's always true. This idea is not newly invented; it's just not as widely used in investing. In fact, I use this method when I operate my business and/or look to buy business (or even equipment!). For instance, I'd ask myself what my return would be for spending such and such $$$ buying a rental house, a hotel or even a commercial vehicle. From expense directly to cash in my pocket within a time frame. Then, why not asking the same questions in investing? Just that alone, it changed the way I buy stocks. I don't chase after high-fly stocks any more. I'm investing on quality companies that actually generate cash, with optional re-investing for future growth. You got the idea! And there are tons of those companies out there to profit from.
Thank you for writing this. A short, concise, and thorough book on the...

T. Ortiz: I am new to the stock market - and am taking a finance class in college for my BAS. I already have some investments that are doing well. I would say that are too safe. I bought this book because everyone talks about Warren Buffet and his money.
The 2 step process the author describes is legit. He lengthens the steps out clearly so he answers your questions before you think about it. I really like the author's style and tone. I would like any class that he is teaching.
That said, the book is not a get-rich quick book. I wasn't looking for that. I know some readers will think that you just "buy this stock" and overnight you will be rich. But that is not the case. The author shows you how to be prepared and make good decisions.
I passed my book along to my colleague who is also new to the stock market.

Khabuz: I read this book and it has some great education around stocks investments, the author shares his personally experiences across many areas of investment scenarios and with each chapter he also has a complicated jargon explained in the most simplest forms, but he has also added acronyms and financial terminologies which are used in the open trading floor. Few things have now started to follow is to look for positive cash flow, moat of a company and following strict rules of investment, an if you don't than well get ready to give away your money to others!
