Video conference with Walter J Schloss on 12 Feb 2008

On 12 Feb 2008, Walter J Schloss gave a video conference on investing. The video conference is part of series of high profile Canadian and US value investor speeches organized by Dr. George Athanassakos, the holder of the Ben Graham Chair in Value Investing and the Director of the Ben Graham Centre of Value Investing, for the benefit of his students in his Value Investing courses at the Richard Ivey School of Business.

Walter Schloss is one of the Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville (Read more about his track record here: http://peterlim80.blogspot.com/2008/10/superinvestors-of-graham-and-doddsville_21.html ).

If there is one statement which is repeated a number of times by him, it is, “I don’t like to lose money.” I think that was the most used statement by him in the recording.

He seems to have very simple rules for investing:
1. Low Debt
2. Good History
3. Price
4. Management
5. Investor Characteristics
