An Absolutely Wonderful, Informative Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This was the most fascinating investment book I have ever read. It was incredibly informative and I loved the way it included baseball and the seventh game of the World Series. Exceedingly creative. And I'm not even a baseball fan!!! After reading this book, which outlines the methodology Gallander uses for his investment letter, Contra the Heard, I no longer feel the need for a full service broker. Every rule that Contra uses when picking stocks is highlighted! I'm now ready to strike out on my own and save a ton in brokerage commissions. Funny, before I read the book, I wasn't even aware who he was. Now I notice people quoting him in all kinds of investment publications. A great, fun read.
