Buffet, in order to become THE Buffet we know and worship, had to essentially "unlearn" many of the investment tenets he assimilated from Graham. As he has said, he had to "escape" from the old ideas. Said another way, he lovingly "refused to accept" the notion that you had to buy a stock with a certain dividend yield, or at less than its net working capital, or with a certain P/E ratio, or any other FORMULAS you can come up with, in order to be called a conservative investor, or value investor. James, you made up for your absence with that last post. Nicely done. Congratulations on the future new addition.

Value stock a Buffett stock??? I see now that Mr. Buffett owns Arrow Electronics (ARW) Message 6889697 Wish I would've known that when I made my small purchase-- it wouldn't have been so small: Message 5897044 I wonder what he paid for his shares. I'm in at 12+. I think I've got him beat there -- he overpaid IMO. -gg- quote.yahoo.com

Should your investment strategy change if your wife just told you she's pregnant with your first child? The joyous question I face this holiday season is how much CYM will I have to sell to buy a crib? Jim, Congratulations on the soon-to-be-arriving family member! Shane
