What investment books can you recommend?

I have read and enjoyed the following;

Free Capital discusses the investment strategy of 12 individuals who have all been very successful . What I enjoyed most about this is that it highlighted the fact that there are many strategies you can use to get very good returns.

The snowball is the only authorized biography about Warren Buffet. Arguably the most successful investor ever. I found this a compelling read.


The intelligent investor is the book that taught Warren Buffet so that's probably the only recommendation needed. I think it lays out the case for value investing very strongly with good examples.

I think there are still a good number of well known and colourful investors and their strategies still to cover within equities for a follow up book and ideally a few female investors in the next one.

Colourful language. When I read bb's I tend categorise posters, with language like that my view of you has dampened somewhat. But you should continue to post as you wish, it helps me refine my filter.

There is a lot of dross posted on this thread today, none of which helps me make any money. I am a focused Investor, getting too involved in heated arguements or bb spats does'nt help me make any money. It is a waste of valuable reading time.

But folk should continue to do as they please, as I say it helps me refine my filter and makes my bb reading more effective as I know who to ignore and who to listen to.

I view free capital & daviddosh in a higher regard after today because clearly they are very focused investors who don't get involved in the nonsense & are interested in making money, whereas the rest are more interested in entertaining themselves.

You haven't by any chance read post 72 in this thread?

Sorry, saw it afterwards.

I hadnt gotten that far in reading the posts yet.

There are also various threads on GEI about the book. Some of the interviewees post there (and were recruited there) too

Guy and some other Free Capital investors are amongst the many SERIOUS users of bulletboards like Advfn and GlobalEdgeInvestors dotcom, as the interview makes clear.

SOME ALTERNATIVE BOOKS, FOR COMPARISON

The same concept as Free Capital, but about investors in the US not the UK:

The Warren Buffetts Next Door: The World's Greatest Investors You've Never Heard of and What You Can Learn from Them
by Matthew Schifrin



I have linked to the amazon.com (not co.uk) site because there are more reviews there.

Review by Richard Beddard:

" This book is the best of a small breed of books about investors because Thomas really understands investing, avoids hyperbole and tells it how it is....

...The author says Free Capital is not a "how to book", but I think that's because there can be no such thing. Investors are so different there can only really be "how I books". This book, therefore, is twelve small books for the price of one. The benefit in reading it goes beyond inspiration, reading it invites comparison between the investors' methodologies and your own. "

Recently published, my book!...

Free Capital: How 12 Private Investors Made Millions in the Stock Market



"This book profiles 12 private investors. Each of them has accumulated £1m or more – in most cases considerably more – mainly from stock market investment. Six are 'ISA millionaires' who have £1m or more in a tax-free Investment Savings Account (ISA), a result which is arithmetically impossible without exceptional investment returns."

First chapter available FREE to read here
