The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham

BATB score: 7/10 💸

Reader discretion is advised: heavy. very heavy book dated back to the 1970s stock market. not for the light-hearted amateur readers. However, reader may survive this book by reading only the chapter commentary by Jason Zweig as he speaks human while Benjamin Graham speaks alien investor dashboard.

Best as: a book that inspired Warren Buffett to build his Berkshire Hathaway Inc. empire and be the world's top 10 richest man #dayum having this book in my possession already makes me feel richer

Best for: keen DIY stock investors to maybe read "The Five Rules for Successful Stock Investing" by Pat Dorsey instead; same concepts but way easier to read through

Best to: okay, here's the plan; bundle your risky investments into one blob of capital and dump it in Berkshire Hathaway Inc. Class B stocks. Leave it there for 5-10 years, the end
