Margin of Safety by Seth A Klarman

I bought this out of print book for over $1000. I will keep everyone posted as I get deeper into it. This is a value investing book and he talks alot about Buffet and Graham. It is not as user friendly to read as Rule Number One but some of the reviews I read on this book claim their investing results were greatly enhanced.

Stay Tuned!

Re: Margin of Safety by Seth A Klarman

WOW! Question, if you would, is it possible for you to Xerox the entire book, and fax it to fellow members on this website?

There was a very excellent review on Amazon:

Quote:
Great book so far,

Any aspiring value investor who would think about buying a book fo 1200 dollars should buy a book on market timing and technical analysis instead. I think there is one called "believing in greater fool theory and acting accordingly."

Value investors will put in an ILL request at the local library.
If you can make a copy of the entire book and share it, you'd be my hero. Feel free to PM me if you're interested. You can spread your "cost" by distributing the pages to 10-20 friends

Re: Margin of Safety by Seth A Klarman

Here is more info about that title

The $700 Used Book

Interesting find. However, at todays prices one might just buy it, read it, and sell it on once finished. I am sure you won't do the transaction at a loss. Asking someone to copy and post it on a public forum is not the best form.

PS. Someone posted interesting notes here
