Rule #1

Book • 2006
In 'Rule #1', Phil Town presents an investment strategy based on the principles of Warren Buffett and Benjamin Graham.

The core rules are 'Don’t lose money' and 'Don’t forget Rule #1'.

Town advocates for buying wonderful businesses at discounted prices, emphasizing the importance of understanding the business, identifying a 'moat' (competitive advantage), and ensuring a 'margin of safety'.

The book encourages investors to think like business owners rather than gamblers, focusing on long-term success while using short-term market timing to maximize returns.

It also debunks common myths about investing and provides tools for managing investments effectively.
