Bud, I purchased a B share of Berkshire Hathaway for $1,708 on 12/31/1999 and sold it for
$3,594 (because I needed cash). I enjoyed reading Buffett's annual reports. When and
where (www.frips.com?) will your book be available? I agree with you that "quality
bargains at 50 cents on the dollar may soon appear".

In short, the book is a Behavioral Finance look into how Buffett and Munger "frame" their
investing decisions.

Here is a clue:

Happy 4th of July Weekend !

On the surface, “The Four Filters Invention of Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger” at
[www.frips.com] appears to be just a reiteration of Buffett and Munger ideas. But, a keen
and perceptive reader will notice that it goes deeper than that. My book strives to prove
that Buffett and Munger invented a unique Behavioral Finance Formula/Process composed of
three qualitative steps and one quantitative step, that is underappreciated by the
business and academic communities.

Read the summary a few times, and you will be motivated into thinking about ways we can
“frame” our important decisions. How and Why? The book was designed to motivate ( like
Jim Collins' book "Good to Great" ) as well as educate us into better framing of our other
life decisions. This book is a subtle peek into their sensible and optimal thinking within
Behavioral Finance. Also, my book includes my own valuation of Kraft, KFT.
