Francis Bacon says, "Reading maketh a Full Man; Conference A Ready Man; Writing An Exact Man."

In today's English it means, "Reading makes a Person Fully Informed; Speaking a Ready Man & Writing a Precise Man."

The habit of reading and reading is liken to a Man prospecting for Gold among stones. You have to painstakingly turn every piece of stone to find that precious piece of True Gold.

So Reading Is ACTUALLY GENIUS AT WORK - Searching & Researching The Tons Of Material to Uncover THE NEXT GREAT BUY. And when Warren Buffet finds it - He Turns On His Elephant Gun
