I read it and others and now understand how the market works and how it strays from intrinsic value often. I don't think this buy and hold a US stock index fund like the S&P 500 is going to do well for Americans if the markets are like they were in the 70s. Financial advisors will say you cant time the market and don't have to bc the markets have been freakishly trending up every decade. I think Intelligent investor is even more important now.

Trust me, you are still young enough tp profit handsomely from it. better to read such a classic thoroughly and repeatedly than to consume the flow of investment guides.
