Books to Read

Null,
I recently read a book called,
Fear,Greed & Panic - Psychology in the Market , (Wiley)
Fairly interesting, coveres bubbles such as south sea, tulips, florida, equity markets. Includes some worthwhile sections on the psychology of trader’s and other market participants, ect
 
Intelligent Investor is good, I own the original but liked the new version (it includes both the original and some guy offering his insight), I would spring for the new one.
 
I liked the intelligent investor. Bruce Greenwald’s book on Value Investing is a good follow up to that.
 
I took CFA exams only because I want to drive a lambo, get laid, play playstation 3 and do some dope. Now you tell me to read more books?! Give me a break, man! BTW, what’s the correlation of knowledge and money anyway?
 
bout the same as the correlation between having a CFA charter and money.
Quick quizz: - How many on the Forbes list are CFA charterholders? - Nil
Closer to home: - How many on the Alpha top earner list are CFA charterholders? - Nil
And what about bufftet, bogle, templeton, soros, lynch, etc, etc, etc - Nil again…
Seein’ a pattern yet?
now, why are you doin’ the CFA thing again?
 
Null & Nuller… He may not be as rich as Buffett but Benjamin Graham is the unofficial father of the CFA program. It was he who advocated putting the program together back in the 40’s I think.
 
I don’t think anyone who owns a copy of Klarman’s Margin of Safety is willing to loan it to you. It’s one of the most stolen books at Libraries. Try to book some time in the reserve section bc they won’t let you read it unsupervised.
Null&Nuller as a Gen-Y’er I must say that for the most part you are correct. But I’ve read and own a copy of the original Intelligent Investor and Ben Graham’s Security Analysis (so maybe I’m a freak).
