The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life

Worth an estimated US$50 billion, Warren Buffett, the 'Oracle of Omaha', is simply the wealthiest and most successful investor of our time. For an insight into how Buffet made his billions, read a copy of Alice Schroeder's biography. Buffett selected Schroeder to be his biographer and gave her unprecedented access to his life. The result was a 900-page tome that The Washington Post said 'should become a bible for capitalists'.

From humble origins in Budapest, George Soros used his uncanny investment instincts to become a self-made billionaire, as well as one of the most controversial individuals in the investment world. Activist, philanthropist, self-styled philosopher and financial sage, Soros gained fame in 1992 by making US$1 billion in one day by shorting the British pound. His website contains a virtual library of essays, books and speeches, giving insight into his thoughts and theories on topics as diverse as the euro-zone crisis and marijuana legalisation.
