This book in various chapters does describe my trading systems (but of course it is mainly about aliens and IT )

What book do you like to read the most ?
Posted at 24/12/2015 22:38 by sandbag
Temmujin,

I've just viewed the youtube clips and am quite astounded. Most of my working life concerned heavy steelwork (major construction projects on three continents) and the thought of steelwork turning to dust as it falls a few hundred feet seems astonishing. I shall certainly buy this book as I am most intrigued. However if it is true that this happened I am sure it will be more down to the laws of physics rather than Masonic or Zionist influence.
I would like to point out that you seem oblivious to present time. It's Christmas. The time for goodwill to all men. Park your prejudices for the time being.

Merry Christmas to you.

Edit:
I've just looked for this book on Amazon - £283 second hand - Jeez! I shan't be buying it but will see if I can get this through my local library.

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.
