Are You a Good Swimmer?.......2000-04-30

Hayek uses flawless logic to prove that Keynesian economics, which is touted today as our own modern monetary policy, is inflationary economics. The end result of this application can only be a situation which is worse than the one it was intended to remedy. Hayek proves that individuals acting independently are unable to provide the consistent statistical information necessary on which to base an ordered economy. Hayek then explains how Keynes' pursuit of a perfect monetary policy will never be realized because artificial intervention can only produce inflationism. Hayek's focus throughout the book on the temporary fix versus long-term consequences now has me watching our present government and its monetary decisions in a new light. In 1979, Hayek showed what is happening today with perfect clarity. Every act of intervention brings about a need for more. Hence, his title "A Tiger by the Tail". Once we have grabbed a hold we cannot let go and are inevitabily dependent upon the government to bail us out and keep us afloat. If you read this book, you don't have to believe...just be a good swimmer.

I think this is great book and helpful to write good resume, but not covered the most important part which the resume covering letter, and I think most of the time the resume covring letter more harder than to write your experinces and your details,,

Book Description

Behind the Smile is an inside look at the world of Caribbean tourism as seen through the working lives of 21 men and women who work in the tourist industry in Barbados. The workers come from every level of tourism, from maid to hotel manager, beach gigolo to taxi driver, red cap to diving instructor. Moving through the various sites in which "hosts" and "guests" meet—airport, hotel, beach, and tourist attractions—these highly personal accounts offer insight into complex questions surrounding tourism. The narratives touch on issues such as how race shapes interactions between tourists and workers, how tourists may become agents of cultural change, the meaning of sexual encounters between locals and tourists, and the real economic and ecological costs of development through tourism. George Gmelch offers an engaging introduction to the history of tourism in the Caribbean and recent research on tourism, development, and cross-cultural communication. This lively book will intrigue students, scholars, and all readers interested in the social and cultural aspects of travel.

Most people come to know of Warren Buffett through his ability to generate wealth. However, as Janet Lowe reveals in her book, Warren Buffett Speaks, Buffett is more than a money-making machine. Warren Buffett Speaks is a library of notes and quotes that have been collected over the years, aimed at revealing the many aspects of the World's Greatest Investor--his wit, personality, and wisdom. The first half of the book deals with Buffett's view of life, family, and friends, while the latter half focuses on Buffett's investment philosophy and observations about the market. This book is a must for every Buffettologist.

Book Description

The world takes note when WARREN BUFFETT SPEAKS:

"If people want to improve their investing skills, it has to help to study how the Master does it. This short book outlines Buffett's philosophy and techniques." - Peter S. Lynch, Vice Chairman Fidelity Investments

"Common sense with a deft irony . . ." - John C. Bogle, Chairman The Vanguard Group of Investment Companies

"It was Warren Buffett's thoughts and philosophy that first captivated investors. Janet Lowe has done us all a great service by collecting and arranging Warren Buffett's wit and wisdom in an easy-to-read and enjoyable book." - Robert G. Hagstrom, Jr. Portfolio Manager, Focus Trust author of The Warren Buffett Way

"A must-read. Buffett's wit and wisdom is a roadmap for anyone looking to succeed in business, investing, and life." - Steve Halpern Editor and Publisher Dick Davis Publishing

"With enough insider information and a million dollars, you can go broke in a year." "What I am is a realist. I always knew I'd like what I'm doing. Oh, perhaps it would have been nice to be a major league baseball player, but that's where the realism comes in." "If a graduating MBA were to ask me, 'How do I get rich in a hurry?' I would not respond with quotations from Ben Franklin or Horatio Alger, but would, instead, hold my nose with one hand and point with the other toward Wall Street."

Discover life's little secrets of success as revealed by the world's greatest investor. In this wise and winning collection of quotes, writings, and favorite sayings, Warren Buffett Speaks on diverse subjects such as investing, running a business, honesty, schoolteaching, paying taxes, and much, much more. Assembled by bestselling author Janet Lowe - and including a wealth of previously unpublished material - this unprecedented peek into the financial genius's wildly profitable philosophy is often surprising, always intriguing, and sparked throughout by Buffett's unique combination of savvy business smarts and wry wit. Here's just a sample of what you'll find inside: "Wall Street is the only place that people ride to work in a Rolls Royce to get advice from those who take the subway." "All there is to investing is picking good stocks at good times and staying with them as long as they remain good companies." "Maybe grapes from a little eight acre vineyard in France are really the best in the world, but I always had a suspicion that about 99 percent of it is in the telling and about 1 percent of it is in the drinking." "I want to explain my mistakes. This means I do only the things I completely understand." "In the end, I always believe my eyes rather than anything else."

Customer Reviews:

A remake of an old book.......2007-10-02

She turns a great man into a cartoon character and refeeds us old quotes that she sold us years ago. Janet is a great writer but this is far from her best work. And the sad part of it is that she knows the man and could have given us some good personal insight. If you read the first edition don't bother with the second. And if you read the second don't expect to get much insight into Buffett's investment methods. Can't recommend this book, but I can recommend her books on Graham and Munger, which are both first class reads and worth the price.

Great Bathroom Reading.......2007-09-13

I read the rest of these reviews below and was amazed at how little praise the author got for his creative collection of Buffett insight. I have read many books on Buffett and I like how this author has gotten the facts about Buffett out in a simple easy to read manor. I say it is great bathroom reading because you can just open the book to any point and read a few pages to learn about a certain section in Buffett's life. It is true that all of this info is found in other publications about Buffett, but this book is fun to read and teaches you about Buffett the man and what he has learned about life. I think it is a great supplement to the other books about Buffett and is a must have for anyone who is looking to emulate Buffett's life and success.

Great insight on a great investor and a great person.......2007-06-29

I try to read everything on Warren Buffett and this book uncovers some new info that I haven't read. This book uncovers more about Buffett, the person, not just Buffett, the investor, even though the bulk of the book is on the latter. Most people like him because he is smart and he is rich but they don't know that he is also a great guy and a good person. He is a great change from the "Hey, it's only business" attitude as he would rather save a good company and lose some money than just fire everyone and sell it. He believes making money is important but building relationships with good people and good management is even more important since this is rare feat. He is not into material things as he still lives in his first house in his hometown driving the same car. Money to him is just a scoreboard. He has made the largest donation to charity in history and plans to give most of it away as opposed to leaving it as inheritance for his family since he believes that would be foodstamps for the rich. You learn a lot from this book about life, not just investing. My favorite part of the book is on his attitude. He is supremely confident and never has any doubt in anything he do. If you ever compare Berk with S&P 500, you will find they are two different graphs. This is testimony to his stay-true commitment to his investment strategy, a very important quality to have if you do decide to invest.

Not recommended.......2005-11-03

If you are interested in reading about Buffett and his investment approach, this book is useless. This is a very short collection of quotes, most of which you will run into anyway.

If interested in Buffett as an investor, one good book is The Essays of Warren Buffett. If you want to save money even on this one, without missing out on the content, just download the letters to shareholders Buffett has written over the years and posted on Berkshire Hathaway's website, for free of course.

Work of a lazy author..........2005-02-12

If being an author means collecting a few dozen quotes from various sources, sprinkling them with dry, useless opinions, and putting them together in an overpriced book, then I wager that anyone reading this can call themselves a writer.

The only reason I gave it two stars is because I liked the quotes. Warren Buffett is the world's greatest investor, the second richest man on the globe, and one of the very few who chose to stay out of the internet boom and bust. While millionaires and billionaires were overseeing the fading of their paper fortunes, Buffett was getting richer.

The many quotes offer an insight into the inner workings of Buffett, and that's really the only redeeming aspect of this book, if it can be called that. Whether your are a seasoned investor, a student of business, or someone looking to quote the words of one of the most brilliant men in the game, you will find value in this book.

The details of Buffett's philosophy aren't explained.......2001-01-02

Ok, this is is so simple that even fifth graders can understand it. It is however, painfully superficial. Only the most rudimentry information is presented about Buffett. Buffett said in the book that you can't think of good ideas by reading/talking. I agree, and that makes the book pretty much worthless. Here is an example of where he is lacking in details. (no fault of the author). He talks about how he only buys stocks for the long term and actually wants a 100% tax on profits from stocks that were held less than a year or two. He doesn't explain the economic ramificiations clearly. He makes investing sound like buy it and forget it. I paraphrase something he said, "we buy a stock and leave it alone until we hear bad news, we don't care about the good news". I mean, come on, over simplification, can you really believe that? He thinks that stock price directly correlate with company's fundamentals. I agree, but uh, long term is a long time. Ok just to sum it up, this book is really more of a biography than a 'investment philosophy+tips for investing'

I think the book is bad because of the lack of information from Buffett. And I am 18 years old and I have been investing for 4 years now.

A great book for the begginer investor......... :-).......1999-02-06

I think that this is an excellent book for anyone wanting to learn how the worlds most famous investor made his riches or anyone wanting to follow in his footsteps.

As a 14 year old who loves business and investing ......... this book can be read and understood by almost anyone

The men behind Brown & Root.......2001-06-03

This is the story of Herman and George Brown and the engineering and construction firm, Brown & Root, they founded. From humble origins in Central Texas building roads with a team of mules to much larger projects such as damns, military installations, ship building, offshore platforms and industrial plants. The book is not about the history of Brown and Root, but rather focuses on the lives of both brothers and their political and philanthropic activities. The book shows the relationship between the brothers and an up and coming Congressman from Texas in the 1930's, Lyndon Johnson. The book chronciles the parallel rise of both the Brown brothers' company and Lyndon Johnson in the national and international scene. The book shows the Brown brothers as movers and shakers in Houston politics and how they helped shape the growing city in the 1940's and 50's. A good book for anyone interested in construction as well as the history and poltics of Texas.

Fantastic Book.......2007-05-10

I've bought and read hundreds of books from Amazon. This is my first review. What Bob Sanford has written is exceptional!. Extremely readable, interesting, entertaining, and profound. I highly recommend buying and absorbing this book.

AWESOME.......1999-09-30

This is the kind of book you pull off the library shelf because the title is outrageous. "There is no way a book could live up to that title," you think to yourself. That is exactly what I did. I opened the cover and discovered a delightful and insightful book about life, and finance. I have read many books of advice on how to invest, and this I have to admit is the best most useful book I have read on that topic both for beginning investors, and for the seasoned. The book is ostensibly about how to manage your affairs if you are trying to win the Lottery. Mr Sanford covers alot of territory here, and includes excellent advice on issues relating to the Lotto, and if you would win, and if you would not win which is more likely! It's a fun book. Don't miss it!

Customer Reviews:

This booked revolutionalized my attitude towards money!.......2000-04-06

The book was very well written and easy to read. It's a must read for anyone who's seriously trying to save and invest. She really makes the reader understand the power of compound interest over time -- understanding that concept alone changed my whole attitude towards saving!
