Fabulous insight into a very interesting man. Dec 03, 2008 I'm devouring this enormous book so fast that I'm getting a "Snowball Headache" LOL
His approach to investing is well displayed in the book and fun to watch develop over time as he moves from selling newspapers and used golf balls to become an icon in the world of finance. His life, and the colorful group of people who have been part of his story, make for a great read.
Thank you Alice Schroeder for giving us this glimpse into the man and his methods.
The Snowball Dec 03, 2008 hile the book is a good read the Kindle edition does not support your ability toview the many footnotes until you get to the end of the book. Kindle dropped the ball on this one by not enabling the ability to do so. The first letter of my first sentence is a W. Kindle does not make provisions for me to go back and make corrections.
An amazingly ordinary man Dec 03, 2008 This book gives insight to debunk any myth that weathly peoples lives are any different. Warren I feel for you, you're just better than everyone at seeing how simple the abstract of making money can be and how complex human relations are, money can never buy the deep richness of a real relationship. When people are real/human, money doesn't matter.
The best about the Best Dec 02, 2008 Love the way in is written and got so much insight to a great man. Focus.
Lowenstein's book is better Dec 01, 2008 Am a buffett fan.
This is a good book but I found the Roger Lowenstein book far better than this one. If you dont read snowball, you wont miss much of Buffett!
