Unabridged Audiobook
If you like books that are related investment then definitely you should go with this. This will give initial insights of investment banking . talking about narration it was good i really enjoyed this while listening .generally we feel bored listening this type of audiobooks or books.
Put your thinking cap on and no distractions, as this book reads like those math word-problems in school ("If Joe buys this much and sells that much, what is his profits?"). ++ SUPER meaty and deep, but well presented in an understandable 6-Step Buffett Roadmap with TONS of What-To consider AND How-To advise, formulas, and steps to achieve, plan, focus on what a strong, enduring business (and by default stock) looks like. ++ Once the author has taught that to the reader, the end 20 minutes of the audiobook (entire epilogue) is very helpful on Business Plan Outline! This book is truly about getting the starting point/foundation right of a business/stock--whether as an owner or investor. If done right, those two can actually become synonymous! [Note 1: while the Earnings Growth Rate is the core Warren Buffett metric of whether a business was, is, and will continue to be a strong, growing business (think earnings/returns), the rushed BA2+ Calculator teachings in this book needed an entire chapter devoted to walking the reader through the word problems' data plugged into the formula.] [Note 2: two small narration errors that were then correctly spoken the next time the number was read--perhaps typos on manuscript author read: 1) @1:30:45 incorrectly read "$4.45", then @1:30:55 correctly read "$5.45". 2) @2:9:42 incorrectly read "360" (days in a year), then @2:14:30 correctly read "365."]
Warren Buffet is my go to person when it comes to investing, and being someone from finance background, this audio book had all the nooks and crooks a finance guy like me could hope for. The slow and understandable pace of narration and the practical approach to financial problems were something that I absolutely adored. And this book is out there for free for all VIP members, Isn't that a delight? I would totally recommend this audio book to all those who are starting their business and need a no nonsense approach to getting it big.
Oh boy this was a waste of time. I want for hours of my life back. I picked it up just couse vip section didn't have anything I was interested in and thought to give it a go. An hour in I started to plan my review, that bad it was. It was full of cringe worthy jokes and not one of them tickled my fancy. Book is meant fore people who hasn't heard of word "investment" and is just above "money-good, no money-very bad" level only there is also a clumsy joke about it. Book circles 5 things round and around, it's ment to teach fundamentals but keeps going back same thing. Advice is to invest in fast and steady growing busneses while paying as little as possible for them. Whole experience gave me a feeling of televised life coach event in filled arena from 80s. I new it won't be ground breaking but was kinda hoping for one or two nuggets to take away. I did not get them. Words "business that W. Buffett would love" was repeated at least every third sentence, to the point where I didn't really hear them any more. Don't waste your time.
