Guide Rating

     Most people know that Warren Buffett is arguably the most successful investor in history, they may or may not have taken time to read his letters to shareholders.  In this second edition, Lawrence Cunningham arranges, edits, and organizes each of Warren's writings based on topic and applicability to managing a business and your personal investments.  The result is a spectacular collection of essays covering every aspect of corporate and financial philosophy.
     While Buffett refuses to make individual stock recommendations or reveal what he is investing in, he is quick to offer his thoughts behind his investing practices.  In these letters, he explains the basic approach he takes in his everyday business affairs.  Each of the 245 pages is jam-packed with advice on everything from managerial pay scales to how to determine the investments that should be in your portfolio.  It should sit in the bookcase of every manager, CEO, entrepreneur, investor, student, banker, and businessman in the world.  The advice offered will be as sound twenty years from now as it is today.  You'd be wise to buy two copies.  We can almost guarantee you'll wear out the first one.
