    I got this book for Christmas in 2019 and did all the ratios (Mr. O'Glove spoke on) to NVDA and other companies in the industry (AAPL, MFST, AMD, INTL, TXN, etc..) and learned that NVDA was the best company I ever researched. This book single handedly made me a great deal of money when I was a senior graduating with my Bachelors in Finance of 2020. This book was the best find I ever read. So grateful for finding this book and applying the knowledge from within it.

    I'm looking at an old photo of Mr. O'Glove on the dust jacket of a hardcover first edition of his book. He surely was hot stuff back in his glory days in 1987. Of course, this video was made 29 years later. I sure like the locations of the wrinkles and the sunspots on his skin. They tell me that this is a man who had a happy life that was well-lived. Notice that he smiles as his very first expression and that it takes him only 4 sentences into his opening before he gives thanks to his family. When I am his age, I sure do hope to be like him.
