Fooling Some of the People All of the Time, A Long Short (and Now Complete) Story, Updated with New Epilogue by David Einhorn
David Einhorn is a bright guy in re: investment matters. And, I was one of the fools referred to in the book title. I had owned a small position in Allied Capital for quite some time and it had performed quite well, price gains, good dividends... After his comments on Allied came my way, I delayed - for a bit too long - in dumping it. Costly.
The book is interesting, well written and covers Allied's duplicitous ways. I'd like to say that I "enjoyed" the book, but heart burn prevents me from show more doing so. Actually, it truly is interesting, instructive and thought provoking. It may not teach you how to fudge on income tax (not that I recommend that in case the IRS is reading), but it will open your eyes a bit on corporate flexing on the truth.
I kind of wish that he would do a regular newsletter ala Bill Gross of PIMCO or Jeremy Grantham of GMO (you can get a password to get into this). show less

well written with a lot of amazing revelations. A really inspiring read. The quality of this guy's research is mind-boggling
