Last Chance to Register for VIC

There are only a few seats left for this year’s Value Investing Congress.Last chance to register!!!.

I’ll be there (in the balcony) so if you go, please come say HI!!

It is October 17th & 18th at the NY Marriot Marquis (next to $JMBA).  Just added as a speaker: Whether you agree with him or not he never fails to intrigue and entertain.
