3.0 out of 5 starsGood book but not for non-financial readers
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on July 27, 2020
The content is pretty abstract. For a person who doesn’t have much fundamental knowledge about financial statement, it’s pretty hard to understand. Also, I can’t seem to find analogy between the examples in the book and some financial statements from online, using the same formula to test understanding. I would recommend people who has some basic knowledge to get more out of the book.

If you're new to the world of finance, or merely looking to augment your knowledge as an investor/trader, then this book will be invaluable to you. Though certainly based in long term thinking; there are innumerable insights within that will help you develop a deeper understanding of the inner workings of a company via its financial statements.

Super concise, super clear, the authors are guiding us steps by steps through the financial statements, explaining what every line means, how Buffet analyzes it and what are it's underlying implications. Perfect introduction book to financial statements and Buffet's way of investing.

You have never or almost never read financial statements and you're looking for a book guiding you through the 3 main statements, giving you an overview of the main concepts and telling you how Buffet interprets those concepts. This book is for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy read, great for beginners

Nice easy read and straightforward for beginners.

I wish chapters were more than just 2-4 pages long. I also would have enjoyed them using different companies to compare rather than continuously use Coca-Coka or other holdings that Warren Buffet has.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for beginners

Great book for beginners! Only caveat I noticed in the book was that certain stocks she advocated against having a competitive advantage are in Berkshire’s portfolio.

Aside from that it goes through the process of looking at financial statements very well’. Be sure to read the intelligent investor to pick up some other accounting gimmicks in order to form accurate calculations
