There is a 90 minute documentary on Sir Ron Brierley this saturday night at 9.45pm, well worth watching for everyone. This guy is a genius and many of his investing friends like Bob Jones will be on it...a must see I think.

It was good to watch, but most of the important stuff (well the stuff that was important to me - ie where he got his financial backing from, how he analysed firms, how he chose which firms firms to scrutinise etc) was glossed over or omitted altogether.
JulianGimme $20k. You will receive some well packaged generic advice that will put you on the road to riches beyond your wildest dreams ...yeah right!

I thought it was quite clear:
1. He worked hard and was creative about what he did and saved his money for investment capital.2.He looked for coys which had assets which were undervalued and used his skill to unlock that value or for coys where there was synergy with what he already had.
Graeme Hart does the same today as does Rons firm GPG. Just read what they are doing with the coy which owns the racecourse.
