I particularly hate those armchair characters. The valuation methods in this book are very practical, and the insights of the investment gurus mentioned are also very enlightening. I think of a friend of mine who always blindly follows trends without his own valuation method, and ends up losing a lot of money. I think this book can help him learn how to value correctly and make more informed investment decisions. All in all, I think this is a book worth reading.
