Post #10581 by sutton on the Berkshire Hathaway board

If someone appears to be repeatedly personal, lean towards patience as they might not mean offense. If you are sure, however, then do not deepen the problem by being negative; instead, simply place them on ignore by clicking the unhappy yellow face to the right of their name.

I think you’ll get as many opinions as there are contributors.

Your approach of trying to learn before jumping in is a good start.

Were it me, at a minimum I would start by:

- filtering Shrewd’m since its inception for everything posted by mungofitch (principally found on the Berkshire & Mechanical Investing boards), and read them carefully. That should take a few days.

- reading The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham - specifically the newly published (October 2024) 75th Anniversary edition with updated commentary by Jason Zweig. (Amazon, $30). That will take another week or so.

That puts you to mid-December for a good basis on how to think about all of this.
