Investing for the long term : my experience as an investor
by Francisco García Paramés
The book is divided in two parts. The first one is formed by three chapters covering Francisco's education and first steps, his initial experience as an investor working alone, and the team work after 2003. The second part covers the cornerstones of Francisco's philosophy. It starts with a chapter in Austrian economics, in his view the only sensible approach to economics, which has helped him enormously over the years. It follows with chapter five, where he explains why one has to invest in real assets, and specifically in shares, to maintain the purchasing power of ones savings, avoiding paper money (fixed income) at all costs.
