Reviews

In The Money Masters , Train captured the investing styles of about 10 highly successful investors. Here he has expanded the 40 pages devoted to Buffett in the earlier book, using much of the same material. This is more of a paean than the earlier work because none of Buffett's "worst" investments are mentioned, and Buffett's reputation has grown. Train writes well, with wit and clarityan amiable match for the style of an investor who shuns computers, won't use a calculator. He examines Buffett's methods and advises the reader how to invest like Buffett. Readers would have benefited from more analysis/biography rather than the 60 pages used to list major transactions of Berkshire Hathaway (the company Buffett controls), but most business collections will want this.
