Value investing made simple: Here I write about great ideas from Warren Buffett, and share some ideas about making money on the stock market. Let me share some great investment ideas and concepts of value investment from the famous Buffett with you: 1.

This key insight means that the stocks yield money when the businesses are...

But most people find it difficult to think different from the herd. They rejoice when prices rise and get deflated when they fall. Eventually they succumb to fear and greed. But the crux of investment education lies in separating emotion and money. Any person would generally, unknowingly, buy when it climbs and sell when it drops. That's not right. Here's what Peter Lynch reveals from his 20 year record of serving 28% annual returns at his mutual fund. He says most people who invested into his fund did not...

Modern life dictates us its rules in everyday situations. Things have changed a great deal for the past decades. Scientific breakthroughs and rapid political changes have led to the permutations in the minds of contemporary people. Things that were necessary and important to learn twenty or thirty years ago now have lost their importance. And vice versa - new sciences and occupations appear almost on a weekly basis.
