An Introduction to Intelligent Investment Today
A REPUBLISHED Piece. My FIRST ever podcast! (It wasn't quite as bad as I had remembered) But it remains a self-taught (and ever so slightly amateurish) exploration into the world of Podcasting. Whilst I hope that I delivered much of what I promised back then, I realise that there is so much more in-store. In time I hope to deliver a much more bespoke and individual experience for my dedicated listeners, including the option of paid content to turbo charge your understanding of Benjamin Graham, the tutor and mentor of Multi-billionaire Warren Buffett. I hope you find my lack of professional editorial polish charming and if not, that it more than made up for by what I have to say on the subject that I hold dearest to my heart, the value investment approach as espoused by the GOAT on this subject. I promise to improve (it can't get no worse). David Support the show
