This is a video blog post. Text follows below the video…
If you didn’t (can’t?) watch the embedded video, then here are the highlights:
- McGraw Hill kindly gave me a copy of the new book “Benjamin Graham on Investing” to review and give away
- The book will be dry if you don’t know who Benjamin Graham is already
- The book is a gem if you have ever spent time looking through financial statements
- It is a collection of Graham’s writings between the end of the First World War and up to the stock market crash of 1929, all gathered into one book
- McGraw Hill have given me one copy to give away and the rules are down below

Fyi, the video link (which appears as a red X) in the Feedburner email leads to a real estate website. Or maybe it was an ad in the email. Just mentioning it in case it was due to your experiment with Video postings.
Ryan
Keep up the good work Preet.

I’d be interested to see how Graham’s comments from pre-Depression match up with the finance world today. I’d guess not much has really changed.

I like my drinks dry, so if I don’t win I’ll just buy the book. :-D I already have Security Analysis and The Intelligent Investor and they are fascinating insights.

I am in. However, I did look at the book in Chapters and I found it not as useful as The Intelligent Investor.

Great site, I would love to have the Graham Book. I’ve read the Intelligent Investor and it’s changed my mindset. I’m much more focused and patient than I have ever been in my stock purchases. .
