		<title>Getting Warren Buffett sized returns by avoiding investing like Buffett</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The title of this post may seem paradoxical. But it is not. There is a qualifier to the statement.

		<title>Pareto&#8217;s Principle &#8211; A Name for an Old Rule</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have often referred to what I called the 80-20 principle, the common idea that 80% of the results come from 20% of the work. I have set up a portfolio to test the theory called the 80-20 portfolio. Who knew this was an actual economic concept and not just an old wives tale.  It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Extra Investing returns by Investing Like Warren Buffett</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Overconfidence, Underreaction to Warren Buffett&#8217;s Investments is an interesting paper I saw at Simoleon Sense.

		<title>Morningstar gives up the Ghost</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Morningstar.com recently changed its years old policy of providing free ten year financials. It still offers free five year financials but has shifted the ten year data to an expensive premium service. Now that it is costs, I would suggest not using Morningstar anymore.

		<title>How does One Invest in a Company whose Price will Decline? Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is not the same question as &#8220;Does shorting belong in the value investors&#8217; toolbox,&#8221; because shorting is only one way to invest in a company that is expected to decline in share price. But it expresses the idea in an understandable way. I think the normal response for most value investors to the shorting [...]]]></description>

		<title>Two Reasons I love Volatility</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past week was a reminder for some who have already forgotten the lessons of late 2008 to early 2009. Markets can turn south, and quickly. This volatility can be gut wrenching as you watch the value of your portfolio drop. But for people like me, it brought a smile to my face. Uh, What? [...]]]></description>

From here on, I will only update quarterly, because a shorter time frame than that seems silly. Small Investor Portfolio Current Positions DUCK up 27.2% IFON down 13.2 % Closed Positions ORXE up 31.% including commissions. This is all well [...]]]></description>

		<title>Avoiding Confirmation Bias</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I have mentioned previously, one of the points of the 80-20 Portfolio is to incorporate some of the research of Behavioral Finance into an Investing Strategy.
