Great book to avoid investing mistakes (and some good tips too)

4 stars

Well written and easy read, this book fires through several dozen type of bad investment advice and bad investment actions. Each gets a couple pages to cement the thought.

The end of the book has a section on good ideas and good advice. Mostly around his firm's and his personal investment philosophy.

Overall, a great book for any investor, and probably one to reread every few years.
