"Oracle of Omaha Speaks"

There are plenty of books written about Warren Buffett, but what is a better source if not THE source: Warren Buffett. There are just so many lessons to learn from this book. I loved the section where Mr. Buffett explains the Cigar Butts investment style that he practiced before Charlie Munger convinced him to change his style into buying excellent companies at reasonable prices and holding them for a long time. Mr. Buffett is very good at explaining difficult concepts in simple terms that almost anybody can understand.

"Don't Invest in Stocks, Invest in the Businesses Behind Them."
Warren Buffett advises us not to invest in stocks. We should invest in the businesses behind them. He is currently the second richest person in the world, after Bill Gates. He is also arguably the most successful investor of all time. Apart from a youthful apprentiseship with B Graham when he lived in New York, Buffett has always lived in Omaha and his approach to investmnent is a long way from Wall Street in every sense. His letters to shareholders are eagerly anticipated because they contain many simple nuggets of wisdom. Here are some themes that come out from his writings: (1). Stock-market prices for company's are driven by emotion, not truth, and the truth about a company lies in its "operating result" rather than its current stock price or its glossy forecasts; (2). You know the company's "intrinsic worth" and that the market will sooner or later recognises this. This is the essence of "value investing"; (3). Look for company's that have a "durable competitive advantage". Even if their stock price goes up and down, this advantage will naturally see them outperform other stocks; and (4). No matter how great the talent or effort some things just take time: you can't produce a baby in a month by getting 9 women pregnant.

This is simply the best business book there is. I have read both editions and given copies to several clients.

How did he amass such grand-scale knowledge of economic systems and the global market? I read this hoping to find out, and didn't entirely, but made some progress.
""This is the best Buffett book on how I invest"-Warren E. Buffett"

- Reviewed By User: A16TLIGXFLMMIF
I have both editions of this book. If you watch the CNBC special on Buffett, he comes right out and tells the viewers this is the best book you can purchase for what he does. Buffett will never write a book on investing. Why? He has already written it. It is his letters to share holders and The Intelligent Investors (1970s edition). It is basic Dale Carnegie and his way of giving back to those closest to him-the people that have put the ultimate trust in him, Berkshire Shareholders. He puts in right there for you. To better understand, read The Warren Buffett Way and The Warren Buffett Portfolio (two books Buffett and Munger recommend). Read Charlie Munger's Almanac, everything written by Ben Graham (first 4 editions, especially 1940s ed.) and ignore the rest.
"Convenient Value Added Compilation of Shareholder Letters"
2009-04-21
- Reviewed By User: A2VUIDXO9MDO2Q
Warren Buffett's annual letter to shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway is one of the most highly anticipated and widely read documents for those interested in business, investments, politics, and economics. Most shareholder letters are either boring documents that shed little light on the operations of a company or merely glossy cheerleading exercises that gloss over much that informed investors would want to know. In both content and appearance, Buffett's letters are anything but typical. You will not find glossy paper, self congratulatory photos, and other marketing material when reading a Berkshire Hathaway annual report.
Given the fact that Berkshire Hathaway has posted a listing of the past thirty shareholder letters, what would be the value in purchasing a compilation of these letters in the form of a book? When I first learned about Lawrence A. Cunningham's book, The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America, I had doubts about the value of reading it particularly since I had already read most of Buffett's letters to shareholders. I purchased the first edition in early 2000 shortly after becoming a Berkshire Hathaway shareholder and recently purchased Cunningham's 2nd edition.
I can say that this book is WELL WORTH purchasing. For a full review of this book, please click the following link:
