«Speculation as a Fine Art and Thoughts on Life» by Dickson G. Watts

The bible for successful speculators, written on speculation, by a successful speculator.

This is a combination of what speculation is, along with some thoughts on life, business, society, and language. An excellent thought starter.

Also contains Watts classic Thoughts on Life– short aphorisms of timeless wisdom. The original source for classic market wisdom such as: "Make your theories fit your facts, not your facts your theories", "Look after the principal; the interest will look after itself", and "If a speculation keeps you awake at night, sell down to the sleeping point." This book is a must for any listener of classic investing wisdom.
