In revealing detail and with a lucid descriptive style, author Glen Arnold explains Buffett’s thinking behind these investment deals and shows how his cumulative returns compounded his wealth over time. He also reveals Buffett’s investment philosophy, the mistakes he made along the way and how he learned to select which companies were worth backing. Some of the prominent investments included in the book are GEICO, American Express, Disney, Berkshire Hathaway, See’s Candies and the Washington Post. At the end of each chapter, Arnold even includes insightful ‘learning points’ to help investors of every level. Glen Arnold, as a wealthy investor in his fifties, now spends most of his time running his equity portfolio and a property development company from an office from rural Leicestershire. His main research focus draws on the ideas of the great investors, academic discoveries and corporate strategic analysis.
