When I read The Money Master's, Train's feeling was that you didn't even need to go into this kind of extensive financial analysis when investing in net-nets. It was overkill. He said it was sufficient to just buy a large basket of them and watch two out of three of them work out. Even Graham, later in life, came to the conclusion that extensive analysis of securities didn't add much value to the investment process. That was when he boiled his ideas down to a small number of "bullet points."

Of course, Buffet, who has excoriated formulaic investing, disagreed with him there.
