Back to VaR aka Value At Risk.

I bought this book years ago, maybe 20 years. It's so long I'm not sure. It sat on my book shelf and then on my desk.

But today I asked my wife to pick a number between 1 and 33 and she said 26. So I reached for the 26th book on my desk and Value at Risk was the book.

So I start looking through the book and it's something useful to me from 2 ways. The first is I just got a new job as a Risk Manager and the book will help with my understanding of managing risk. The second is that I've been listening to a book called 5 Elements of Effective Thinking. This book talks about Digging Deeper as the first of the 5 rules.  So this book also meets that criteria.

I'm very excited about learning and what better thing to learn than something that will help me on the job to reach a life goal of $ecurity.
