Hi Tom, Interesting letter from Barry in Brazil. Life is strange. I live in Toronto, but grew up in South America in a country north of Brazil. And yes, I did unwittingly wade into Piranha infested waters once. Maybe, that's why risk management makes good sense to me. I had bought the Money Spinner here in Toronto sometime about 1980 as well, and Barry is right, that book is clear and concise and takes the AIM concept a few steps further than the AIM book. Of course, with some of the changes that you have introduced (split safe, Vealie, etc.) and the tools available now, i.e., Newport and PCA, AIM investing has become much more sophisticated. Maybe, Barry might be interested in joining us here on SI. Regards, Jack

Hi Tom, "The Money Spinner" sounded like it would be an interesting read so I set about trying to obtain a copy. No luck at Amazon or Barnes & Noble or any of the financial press websites. I also tried several of the major used book websites with no luck. Then I called a friend in Canada and it turns out that he had met Dr. Chuck Chakrapani a couple of years ago at an investment seminar in Canada. It seems that Dr. Chuck is Director of a group named the Investors Alliance of Canada, headquartered in Toronto. I called their office and asked about the book. What I found out was that they don't have a copy either. The Money Spinner book is indeed officially out of print and the IAC has no clue where a copy might be picked up. So, if one of you sharp eyed AIMers runs across the book on some dusty bookstore shelf, please let me know the details. I'd like to buy and read it. Saul... (inquisitive.com)
