Robert P. Miles
Warren Buffett Wealth
Principles and Practical Methods Used by the World's Greatest Investor
Wiley, 2004
Aperçu
Warren Buffett got rich doing the same thing consistently: invest in value, buy good management, hold on. Hey, it works.
Recommendation
Warren Buffett is a legendary financial wizard who has built a fortune based on the principles of value investing. Many volumes have been written about his investing approach, but Robert P. Miles’ treatise is a bit different from most of the others. The author is obviously a great fan of Buffett - at times, the book borders on plutocratic hagiography - but his all-encompassing admiration lends his work a distinctive tone. Reading this exposition is like hearing a star-struck fan discuss the techniques of a favorite movie star. Dazed admiration helps Miles see patterns, connections and details about Warren Buffett that you might not find in a more objective or more focused tome. If you want a nitty-gritty, pros and cons analysis of Buffett’s investing style, go elsewhere. If a down-home and frankly admiring analysis, complete with investing advice based on Buffett’s principles, is more your style, getAbstract.com assures you, you’ve come to the right place. No naysayers allowed.
