Abstract

I love to read history. I especially love to read about great people from all walks of life, political leaders, scientists, intellectuals, and military leaders. Since there are really not many truly new and original ideas, you can learn a great deal from studying people who have been successful and what made them successful. I have chosen to profile three individuals. Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch are two of the most successful investors of the post-World War II era. Burton Malkiel is one of the most important investment/economic theoreticians of our time. Much can be learned from studying these men and their investment styles and philosophies.
