Investing An worthwhile point.

From a Warren Buffett, 1987 Letter to Shareholders of Bershire Hathaway, Inc.

Following Ben's teachings, Charlie and I let our marketable equities tell us by their operating results--not by their daily, or even yearly, pride quotations--whether our investments are successful. The market may ignore business success for a while, but eventually will confirm it. As Ben said: "in the short run, the market is a voting machine but in the long run it is a weighting machine." The speed at which a business's success is recognized, furthermore, is not that important as long as the company's intrinsic value is increasing at a satisfactory rate. In fact, delayed recognition can be an advantage: It may give us the chance to buy more of a good thing at a bargain price.

A Blogging Committment

Daughter does such a consistent job of blogging as do several others I read that I want to follow their example and blog more dependably.

On Friday I emailed my grant Letter of Inquiry to the Investor Protection Trust for Stock Market Game Program funds for my next three years of expansion across Alaska. Since this was a steep learning curve for me (I've never done anything like this before), I whined, complained, and fussed all the way.

Today, I'm back writing on 'Grammar DOG'---Demystification of Grammar:Manual for Successfully Teaching Grammar---for the first time in months. Life, stock market teaching, Slingerland Institute work, etc, etc. has crowded out DOG for months. It feels good to be back!
