Value Investing Made Easy: Benjamin Graham's Classic Investment Strategy Explained for Everyone Paperback – November 22, 1997

The book is great! I've been searching for this book for years and I only found it here in amazon.

Mrs reading it.

The book was as advertised and arrived quicker than expected.

Hardcore value investors do not find this book useful because it is a shorter remake of the original version, Security Analysis by Graham and Dodd. Copy will never be as good as the original. However, whenever I recommend the original work to individual investors, they complain that the book is too hard to read and is not as applicable in today's world. The author wanted to write a book that changes that and explain value investing in simpler English.The most important concepts of value investing are definitely discussed in this book. They are:* Margin of Safety* Intrinsic Value* Stocks are ownership interest in companies* Mr. Market analogyI highly recommend this book to anyone who finds the original work of Graham and Dodd too hard to read.- Mariusz Skonieczny, author of Why Are We So Clueless about the Stock Market? Learn how to invest your money, how to pick stocks, and how to make money in the stock market

This book is okay to read and understand, however by the time you finish it you still feel there's something missing. Surely it gives insight into Ben.G, W.B and other investors opinions and statagies yet it's not 100% satisfactory.

Concise and through treatment for the uninitiated investor interested in investing in the long view.

I liked the book. It is good. Like any book, it adds to what other books have not said. I would recommend it.

I like the idea, but...Having recently undertaken the wonderful journey of studying Benjamin Graham and Warren Buffett through reading most of their writings, I felt obligated to comment on this book. Many important concepts are nicely explained, and the format is pleasing, however, a disturbingly significant number of facts presented are gross misinterpretations.The author does a nice job of explaining commonly used Wall Street terminology and concepts, for the novice. However, she fails in the infinitely more important task of consistently explaining the core concepts of investing (and not just stock speculating -- as so many of us all too often do).Two (among the many) misleading points involve investment diversification and Buffett's used cigar-butt approach. She implies both Graham and Buffett whole-heartedly embrace diversification. Unless I have been reading the wrong Graham and Buffett, they certainly do not do so, unconditionally. The author further misrepresents Buffett when she actually leaves it that he finds the "cigar butt" approach, a wise way to buy businesses. He indeed called that method, "foolish" [Mr. Buffett: if that is no longer the case, please excuse my error.]If you are searching for enlightenment, the way I was, you will be 1000 times better served to read "The Essays of Warren Buffett", arranged by Cunningham and, of course, Graham's "The Intelligent Investor".
