  1. Hey guys just a reminder the meeting is at 7PM but feel free to come later if you'd like. Just ask for Value Investing at the front.
  2. There's a lot of people coming, it's open to anyone interested.

  4. The next meet up is going to be Friday November 25th at 7PM at The Keg Steakhouse + Bar restaurant downtown Toronto located at 165 York St It's after work hours so if you can come on through and chat with us, we'll have a table reserved under Toronto Value Investing. Feel free to stop by !!! Regards, Shawn
  5. Sunday's meet up was a success !! You guys should have seen it, Norm was in rare form and gave some powerful insight. For those who weren't able to make it we talked about: - Canadian real estate market, banking and regulations (what would happen if they went bust) - where to find value now, are markets expensive ? - a lot of books were recommended: Expert Political Judgement, Deep Value, What Works On Wallstreet - Canadian couch potato blog - We talked about Apple, the future of technology - talked about life and goals too - We also talked about Canadian investors too - here's a great video that was recommended on Sunday A lot was talked about and it was amazing overall, hope to see you all at the next one !!!!
  6. This is ignorant, Buffett is referring to a country with opportunity for him to build his wealth. If he were born in Bangladesh in 1930 he would not have had the same opportunities to go to the schools he went to and be exposed to the things he saw that influenced him to become an investor. Has nothing to do with IQ and IQ has nothing to do with success. Rose Blumkin couldn't read or write and build one of the best furniture businesses in North America, Temple Grandin was autistic and became an American icon, as Sanjeev pointed out there's a dozen examples of people we could refer to.
  7. I would question the IQ of anyone who would use this as investment criteria. Also the comment suggests someone doesn't know a lot about IQ testing. +1 +2
  8. If anyone is interested we will be having a meet up this Sunday October 30th at 6PM at Marche downtown Toronto ! Some of you I've sent private messages or emails to a while ago, this is just for anyone new who may be in the area on Sunday. If you can make it or have any questions feel free to send me a private message or post in this thread !!
  9. Thanks guys for coming out !!! We had a good turnout, it was good to see you again Norm !! Thanks to everyone for coming out, a great meeting of the minds if you will and some great ideas shared too. I'm happy I came out this evening. For those who messaged me, there will be another one I'm thinking either next weekend or the one after. Depends on what everyone agrees upon.
  10. Hey guys here's the address for the meeting place: Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street 107S, Toronto and the name of the place is Marché It's open to all so please come through and have a good time over drinks and good ole Value Investing !
  11. Can you guys do Sunday August 28th at 6:00PM EST ? We can meet at Marche or The Keg downtown, Marche might work best since it's a large space for everyone to sit and talk and it has wider variety of food choices in case you guys get hungry. Let me know if this date works for you guys !
  12. Alright perfect !! Sounds good, I think it'd be best it falls on a Sunday, I'm thinking the 28th ? Let me know what you guys think and I can arrange a specific meeting place !
  13. Hey guys it's been along time (I couldn't find the last meet up thread made haha) but I'm back full circle !! I was wondering if there were any Toronto value investors who wanted to meet up this week or the next ? Swap some ideas, hear some thoughts, insights and more on investing and the economy ! I strongly encourage all value investors beginners and pros to come ! If you're a student or new to the game this is a terrific opportunity to get acquainted with some of Toronto's finest and brightest minds but more importantly to learn. I want to get a head count of who can make it and from there we can arrange the exact date/time and place.
  14. 13.8% so far, still early and a lot can change. I'm trying to find new things to buy.
