Outsmarting the Crowd: A Value Investor's Guide to Starting, Building, and Keeping a Family Fortune Paperback – 1 Dec. 2015

I'm a beginner investor and this books got me excited to get started. I'm sure I will be reading this again and again the more further i get in my investment journey

Love it, excellent book! really explains the concepts of value investing without too much complication. I have previously bought 'the intelligent investor' and similar books, but they were too heavy to really understand.. now I can go back to those and fully get whats happening. Great read!

If you have been looking for a good primer on Value Investing - this book answers the mail.The book is broken down by the authors “Three Pillars” of Value Investing:PHILOSOPHY – how to think differently; be patient; and embrace failurePATH – how to learn; simplify and focus; and earn, save, and investPRINCIPLES - stocks are businesses; moody Mr. Market; and Margin of SafetyThe thing I liked most about this book - is that it has made me rethink my holding periods for individual stocks. I really appreciate any book that forces a review of my core investing processes - backed up by logic and good examples.I don't agree with the author's view that Options should be avoided - especially when you want to buy Stocks via cash secured puts - but I take his point, most novices should keep it simple.Highly recommended.

…there were a lot of typos, which makes me think that this book wasn’t edited very carefully. The advice given is VERY basic stuff and boils down to, “buy low, sell high, and have patience”. Well duh.

If you are sure how to start on your investing journey, you need to read this book - easy to understand and provides a good framework to work with. Highly recommended !

Bogumil's "Outsmarting the Crowd", is a fantastic book! The best part of the book is when he talks about "thinking for yourself." Such a crucial step when it comes to investing! Great book and look forward to his next ones!

There are a bunch of books on value investment. This one is short and easy to read and understand. It would have been more practical if it has step by step investment examples for beginners.
