    The Essays of Warren Buffett

    I'm reading this again for the 2nd time. If you haven't done so, I highly suggest picking up a copy.

    Not only is Warren Buffett possibly the worlds greatest investor, but he manages to inject plenty of humor into his discussions of investment strategy.

    I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
    I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

          I believe all the writings are taken from the Berkshire annual reports and various other communications to shareholders.

                          Yeah, I've read The Intelligent Investor, and Security Analysis a few years ago. I should probably read them again though.

                                          How can you go from reading Warren Buffett to Rich Dad/Poor Dad?

                                              The intelligent investor is probably the best book for investors in my opinion. You really cant beat it. Ive pulled an average of 39% gain annually for the past 4 years...Durring the resession. That book is $$$.
                                              This is my sig. Flashy, huh?

                                                      Um.. So what should I read after Warren Buffets?

                                                      Ive probebly read it..

                                                      I usually read at least 2 books a week.. nothing wrong with brooding your horisen, and the rich dad, poor dad books are good books.. he has good views.

                                                          pfft....warren buffett

                                                          everyone knows that the true lesson in investment strategy is all hidden in this song by JIMMY BUFFETT


                                                          Nibblin' on sponge cake
                                                          Watching the sun bake
                                                          All of those tourists covered with oil
                                                          Strumming my six-string
                                                          On my front porch swing
                                                          Smell those shrimp, they're beginning to boil

                                                          Wasted away again in Margaritaville
                                                          Searching for my lost shaker of salt
                                                          Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
                                                          But I know
                                                          It's nobody's fault

                                                          I don't know the reason
                                                          I stayed here all season
                                                          Nothing to show but this brand new tattoo
                                                          But it's a real beauty
                                                          A Mexican cutie
                                                          How it got here I haven't a clue

                                                          Wasted away again in Margaritaville
                                                          Searching for my lost shaker of salt
                                                          Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
                                                          Now I think
                                                          Hell, it could be my fault

                                                          I blew out my flip-flop
                                                          Stepped on a pop-top
                                                          Cut my heal had to cruise on back home
                                                          But there's booze in the blender
                                                          And soon it will render
                                                          That frozen concoction that helps me hang on

                                                          Wasted away again in Margaritaville

                                                          Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
                                                          But I know
                                                          It's my own damned fault
                                                          Yes and some people claim that there's a woman to blame
                                                          And I know
