[Eric · Rating 5 out of 5]

No better book to explain the essentials of investing by a credible author. The means to analyze and make wise and appropriate investments haven’t changed since pyramids were constructed. And the ability to coast off a financial cliff perversely in your bubble did not end with Dutch Tulip Bulb mayhem. A timeless book.
