Shane and armi

Thank you for the book recommendations and advise. I am working through some other recommendations from Paul and others now. I am thinking of rereading The intelligent investor however, I heard Security Analysis is a good book. Did anyone read the new edition? Opinions?

I am getting the sense that mastery of an industry or specialized knowledge of some sort is a good thing to develop. A problem I see ahead, for myself, is -failing to screen companies/market correctly. In other words, developing the wisdom to look at the right places for the best opportunities.

I don't know much about Mr Buffets techniques, so I ordered Buffetology and the essays books that was recommended. I am wondering if his techniques are best suited for folks with substantial amounts of money rather than boot-strap type investors like myself.

Again thanks for helping the new guy :)

Anthony
