Right now I've been working on my own list to build some foundational knowledge in investing. I would add one more (hopefully someone will see this..): Investing the last liberal art by Robert Hagstrom. It's probably been the best book I've read in years (and I read a LOT). Excellent list.

I am in Seattle now, and would like to communicate, catch up, and get some advice and information from you. (I also cannot remember the special vegan spots you told me about!!!) Lots of news on this end. Hope you are well and your new site will be a hit. In friendship, marti ("mu") PS: anyone reading this who might be able to forward this - that would be welcomed.

It seems he let the RTI domain expire. The email address we had on file for him was through that domain, so we can't contact him that way. I'll dig up his phone number and see if I can get a new email from him and just see what he's up to. Peterp,

Our Seattle Public Library has the Value Line Investment Survey going back to 1950 if you can imagine. I could have never set up my backtest of Warren Buffett's purchases if it were not for the Foster Business Library at the University of Washington. Most importantly the Librarians were the real resource. Thank you for doing your job, you can't imagine how many out there appreciate the work you do. Thanks Lauren,

As a librarian, I agree that many people can learn so much by reading books! Newspapers, Investment reports, special investment services--libraries have much of this. Also, many local libraries have some of these services directly online through their websites. People should access their local library's website and see what online investment research is available this way as well. Thanks!

Those will give you a foundation on what is called "The Money Mind", which is extremely important. Security Analysis (1934), The Fisher Book and The Alchemy of Finance are more advanced, so I would leave those for last. I have read the Fisher book at least 20 times and Security Analysis 4 times. They are the two most important books in Investing and I try to read the Fisher book everytime I fly somewhere and the 1934 edition of Security Analysis atleast once every 5 years. Everytime I read them I always learn something new. As for the Google ads, they were supposed to be charitable ads like donations for Katrina Relief etc. Money Gn is just a free site that I put up as a probono thing and have been so busy with my new site "The Stock Specialist" that I haven't been back to Gn in months. I will try to communicate with Google and see if anything can be done. Peter Hi Nick,

I want to get started on a book from your list and I don't know which one to start with. I have already read the first two Lynch books, Buffetology and The Intelligent Investor. I can't do them all at the same time, so what should I go to first? Another quick comment I have is about the ads on your site. I realize that they are generated automatically but I think some of them could hurt the perception of your site when there are links to "Hot Penny Stock Picks" and "Winning Stock Picks up 1000%." Just something to think about, appreciate all the work that you do. Peter,
