  I might have bought wrong book. However, I didnt like the term he said.

  that was something like “profit made trading within a year should be apply 100% tax.”

  I think he said that because he started losing money in stock market as many online traders have gained thier edge.

  Thanks

  This is book says it about Buffet’s way of picking stocks, but it is not. I’m sure Buffet would scream if he ever read this book. It not only isn’t Buffet’s strategy, it is bad advise too. Don’t buy this book. If you’ve read it, disregard everything you learned before you lose money. Read Buffet or Graham and get it straight from the horse’s mouth, and learn the intelligent way to pick stocks. This book stinks!

  A $10,000 investment in Warren Buffett’s original 1956 portfolio would today be worth a staggering $250 million … after taxes! What are his investing secrets?

  How To Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett contains the answers, and shows, step by profitable step, how any investor can follow Buffett’s path to consistently find bargains in all market conditions: up down, or sideways. Relatively short and easy to read, How to Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett is an excellent introduction to the world of value investing.The book is relatively short and should provide a satisfying read.

  I am an avid reader of Warren Buffett’s writings, and I believe that Warren Buffett would disagree with many items in this book. For example, Warren Buffett previously described his method of discounting companies in other articles, and it does not match the author’s description.

  I can see how this book would be highly rated to someone not familiar with the details of Buffett’s own articles and letters. But in my opinion, the book appears to only about 80% in agreement Buffett’s previous writings. This book can give the reader a good overview of Warren Buffett’s methods if they do not pay strict attention to the author’s details.

  1) The first quote on the back cover is from Mary Buffett. Mary’s claim to fame is that she divorced Warren’s son and then got into the investment book business. If you can’t do that ‘math’ or you buy into the ‘*****’ reviews for this book I’ve got a bridge I’d like to sell you. 2) Throw out the chapter on ‘Warren on Arbitrage’. I’ve worked in equity arb. Most of this chapter is either outright false or highly misleading. 3) Entire sections of this book read as if they were excerpted from Hagstrom’s or John Train’s books. 4) The only reason I didn’t give this book zero stars was it had some nice quips about value investing in general.
