3 Ways to Make Money in a Downturn — MSN Money
You may have to sign up for this, but do it right away and you can get a .pdf of Andrew’s book if you go to the site before Friday. Here’s a direct link to the book that might bypass everything. That said, I’d still advise you read the article on making money on the downturn.
Horowitz just won the Microsoft Strategy Lab stock-picking competition and is the best stock-picker I have ever met. He’s kept me out of the market too! Good thing.
Thanks John and Andrew.
I really enjoy your conversations. I have been
a John C. Dvorak fan for many 20 years and now
I may also become a Andrew Horowitz fan.
Very nice, thanks JCD. I actually bought the Audible version of TDI but a pdf copy is much better suited to this sort of material.
Thank you to JCD and Andrew for the PDF! I own this book and highly recommend it.
As long as _somebody_ is making money out there, there’s hope for the rest of us.
(I hope.)
Hey! There’s a different guy on the cover of the PDF book! He’s not smiling, doesn’t wear a moustache and sports a tie. We’re being conned! The old financial elite have intercepted our transmissions and are inserting themselves into society again.
I have 3 ways to make money in a downturn.
1) Be an underperforming car company.
2) Be a poorly regulated bank, or
3) Start your own Ponzi scheme.
#5 HA!
Hmmmm…perhaps it’s the same group who gave us the “second Obama” (the one sworn in the second time in private or so I’ve heard). 🙂
#6 I know what you mean…does honesty pay? Yes, in the long run it does and it accrues into that invaluable thing we call reputation.
Call me naive, but in my little world it works (except toward making my first million!).
Andrew Horowitz shows us how to make money in a bear market: give away a book for free, then make it up in volume!
Thank you for the link. There is a glimmer of hope.
