One thing I would like to add is that not all advice is good advice, so it’s vital to filter out the noise from the facts. One of the easiest ways is to follow, listen and learn from people who have or are walking the successful path.

Finding an edge is something that we all want.

Investing is a zero sum game so when you are buying, there is a person on the other end who is selling.

How do you know that you’re correct?

By listening to wise counsel.

Take these words of wisdom on finding an edge from people considered masters in value investing.
