Packed heavily with jokes, stories, moral and morale fables. The beginning is a bit dry, since it is written by a professor but then, when it gets into Warren's own telling it becomes very interesting. As it is a collection of the essays otherwise available on the Berkshire Hathaway web page the arrangement is so that I had to re read same of some parts twice and sometimes trice. In overall the book is great even for non business person as I am. I was reading it while enunciating each word and number aloud. This work is so good and so interesting to me that I didn't want to miss a thing. I wanted to immerse myself in it. That is why I was reading it aloud so that I not only see it but also speak it and hear it. Good job. ( ) My mentor once got me to read all of Buffett's shareholder/partner letters. This included everything going back to his first Buffett partnership letter in 1959. Needless to say, it was an invaluable exercise. This book is a collection of the best of the insights from those letters. It is recommended by Buffett and is a faster way to gain access to a high concentration of insights from an amazing mind. To anybody involved with investment, Warren Buffet does not need an introduction. But his (so far successful beyond his own expectations) approach to investment, based on the value of the asset and its potential to add value to his own business is something that is at least worthwhile understanding, if not emulating. Lawrence Cunningham has made the effort to take the comprehensive thoughts of Warren Buffet as expressed in his widely recognized letters to shareholders and has grouped them by subject, giving an easy and structured access to the thinking and philosophy of a successful investor. If you care about making your money work for you, this book is a must read. The essays in this volume are actually Buffett’s 'Letters to the Shareholders' of Berkshire Hathaway that have appeared in that company’s annual reports over the years. In any given letter, Buffett expounds on what must have been on his mind at the time; the list of topics ranges from ruminations on fundamental investing to discussions of the intricacies of accounting and tax policy to his take on the role of money managers in corporate governance. I imagine that, reading them separately over the years, Berkshire shareholders were highly amused and educated in a one-off sort of way. Reading them collectively, however, you get a great insight into the mind of one of the great investors of our time. Although I have enjoyed other "third party" treatments of this same material (such as Robert Hagstrom’s The Warren Buffett Way), the advantage of reading this book is that you get the man's philosophy directly from Buffett himself without any editorial filters. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
