    Hi everyone,

    I have just purchased a bunch of books by various authors mentioned on these threads.
    I'm going off the assumption that a lot of you have read or are planning to read (or at the least are aware of the content) some or all of these books from;

    - Peter Thornhill
    - David Bassanese (Australian ETF guide)
    - Pete Wargent

    These are the only ones coming to mind at the moment, I have chosen them as they all have a focus on equities and also from an Australian viewpoint (well more so then a lot of the other books i was looking at)

    My plan (well more of a thought i just had) was to approach some/all or even other authors with a set of questions to elaborate further on from their books,strategies and/or point of views - I also thought of inviting them to this forum, though i do think a simple email with a list of questions they can answer in their own time which could then be copy and pasted on this forum might be an easier option for them.

    I have no problem approaching them with the request, however I am not at all confident i would be asking the type right of questions to be getting the best responses (even after i read the books)

    Is anyone (@The Falcon, @austing ) interested in penning a few questions?

    This wont happen overnight obviously, it could be a case of stockpiling questions over a a few months and then putting it to an email?

    Again just a thought, Please reply to this post or PM me if any one is interested

    Thanks

    Kayne

    I have corresponded with @petewargent before privately. He is a top bloke. Maybe tempt him with some cricket talk first and mention that you are a Alistair Cook fan;).Pete knows him from his childhood.
