100Baggers

CHAPTER 1:
INTRODUCING 100-BAGGERS
This book is about 100-baggers. These are stocks that return $100 for every
$1 invested. That means a $10,000 investment turns into $1,000,000.
In this book, I want to show you how you can find them.
I know, I know. It sounds like an outrageous quest with a wildly improbable
chance of success, like setting out to draw a royal flush in poker.
And I would probably have agreed with you not so long ago. But then
I started to dig in and study these 100-baggers. Definite patterns emerged.
Let’s set out what this book will do for you:
• You will learn the key characteristics of 100-baggers. There
are only so many ways up the mountain, and we’ll map out
these paths in what follows.
• You will learn why anybody can do this. It is truly an everyman’s
approach. You don’t need an MBA or a finance degree.
Some basic financial concepts are all you’ll need.
• I’ll share with you a number of “crutches” or techniques that
can help you get more out of your stocks and investing.
• The emphasis is always on the practical, and so there are many
stories and anecdotes to help illustrate important points.
