Great article on Barrons profiling some value investors. Looks like an interesting book and I might get a copy of it.

Favourite one was on Francis Chou, here's a short excerpt:

"When Francis Chou emigrated from India to Canada at the age of 20, he had about $200 to his name. Within a few months, he landed a job as an electrician with Bell Canada in Toronto. He worked there for seven years, spending his days climbing ladders and soldering wires.

During that time, he chanced upon a magazine article about value investing. He knew immediately that this was his calling. “You just have to find bargains,” he says, “and I felt that I could easily do that.”"

Really goes to show you that with discipline, anyone can apply the principles of Graham and Dodd to achieve satisfactory investment results.
