Illustrated with graphs and tables. "Open your mind and prepare to learn proven investment and wealth-building methods and philosophies from the greatest investor of all time." - from the rear outer jacket. "Warren Buffett is both a unique investor and individual. He is one of the few to ever become a billionaire by investing in the stock market, yet he still does his own tax return, has never issued himself stock options, and doesn't want or need a building with his or his company's name on it. Not too long ago, several members of the media and the investment community were writing off Buffett's investment principles and style as not being in step with technology investments and new methods of investing. But time has proven these critics wrong. Now, more than ever, the principles, values, and methods used by Buffett to create wealth are sought after and carefully considered. Warren Buffett Wealth does not discuss any of the latest get-rich-quick investment fads. Instead, it focuses on the straightforward, ethical factors and principles of building wealth, sustaining it, and passing it on to future generations for the betterment of society. Written by longtime Buffett expert Robert Miles, this book outlines the principles and practical methods that have made Buffett one of the greatest investors of our time. You'll learn how to be the best by studying the best and discover how Buffett has built his wealth over time -- not overnight. Through careful observations and in-depth research, Miles examines Buffett's philosophy and illustrates how you can apply it in your own investment endeavors. Some of the topics discussed will help you: * Discover what kind of investor you are; * Develop an investment philosophy; * Understand what you own; * Invest in Main Street, not Wall Street; * Learn from Buffett's investment mistakes. Take-away exercises found at the end of each chapter will further your understanding of the philosophies, principles, and practical methods used by Warren Buffett. As a value investor and a value manager, Warren Buffett has become one of the world's richest citizens. His wealth principles and methods are available to anyone who chooses to use them. With Warren Buffett Wealth as your guide, you'll learn how to become wealthy in both the stock market and in life." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Freeland, Michael J. (jacket design); Peterson, Mark (jacket photograh) (illustrator).…
