$a "Based on a series of interviews, [the book] outlines the investing strategies, wisdom and lifestyles of 12 highly successful private investors. Each of them has accumulated $1 million or more--in most cases considerably more--mainly from stock market investment. ... Free capital--money surplus to immediate living expenses--is the raw material with which these investors work. It can also be thought of as their psychological habitat, free from the petty tribulations of office politics. Lastly, free capital describes the footloose nature of their assets, which can be quickly redirected towards any type of investment anywhere in the world, without the constraints which institutional investors often face."--Back cover
