He is regarded as the French Warren Buffett and one of the best value investors of all time: Jean-Marie Eveillard. Born in 1940 in Poitiers, France, he began his rise to the top of the world 55 years ago. However, he too had to learn the art of value investing from the ground up. In this book, he shares for the first time his journey from a complete novice to a giant of value investing. He recounts successful ventures such as with the Swiss chocolate manufacturer Lindt & Sprüngli, as well as costly lessons during the internet bubble of the 90s and the insights gained from them. In a unique way, Eveillard conveys how a value investor can carve out their own path and achieve success. With an exclusive foreword by Jean-Marie Eveillard for the German edition.
