I am Myles, a passionate Value Investor

My goal in life is aid people in creating wealth. I serve people in the following two ways. Firstly, I choose to be involved in extraordinary organizations allowing me to apply my skills of collecting, compounding and allocating capital. This skill was shaped and defined by the value investing philosophy and I continuously practise it through the employment of my own value investment strategy. Secondly, I choose to empower people to financial and relationship wealth by teaching and mentoring at all levels.

My first act in life was exciting, busy and focused on what I could 'make' or get, i.e. consume, from life. My second act is all about depth and how I can serve society, i.e. contribute, more. As I start my second act I am focused on planning and executing my goal to the best of my ability. I know that my goals outstrips my available resources. However, I choose not to focus on this, but rather allow my goals to take their natural shape driven by my resourcefulness and constrained only by the limits of my own mind, belief system and values.

This site allows me to share my ideas and writings on value investing (the Mind, the Method, and the Money of Value Investing), valuation in general, and my thoughts on leadership and relationships with everyone. Please have a look at my new Value Investing Education in South Africa section, I am very excited about it.

I believe that we grow optimally on the edge of comfort and discomfort. I encourage you to create discomfort in your life in order to grow more, and to a higher level, in life. 

My Blogs:

Please have a look at the 3 blogs I post. They are:

• Value Investing Blog - I discuss approaches to value investing and do share valuations for the JSE. Also check out the 'I find this interesting' page I have added. I have also added three detailed share analysis pages dedicated to the three investment strategies I use when reviewing investment candidates. The first page analyses the shares listed on the JSE using my own Investment Strategy. The second page analyses shares using the Buffett Investment Strategy. Finally, the last page analyses shares using the Graham Investment Strategy. 
• Valuation Blog - I discuss ideas about valuation in general and write about challenging topics in valuation
• Leadership Blog - I discuss leadership ideas and how leading yourself first can improve your own life, the lives of the people around you, and society in general

My Passions:

• Richland Investment Holdings
• Valuation services and Value Investing Education (please have a look at the two Value Investing courses I have created and teach)

“The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. The second best time is now."

My Writing
I love sharing knowledge and information. I read a lot and like sharing information. I like to share the things I learn, and the things I practice, with other people. I write for myself on this site, which has three blogs (i.e. value investing blog, valuation ideas, leadership blog), as well as for Richland Investment Holdings and my Deca-million journey site. Please have a look at my blogs and share your thoughts. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it ;)

I believe that all of us have something extraordinary inside ourselves. My writing grants me the opportunity to become a 105%'er (i.e., a term I like to use which refer to people who do more than the average in order to reach the extraordinary!) and live my right life (i.e., my dreams and visions) with a smile on my face and peace in my heart. Please contact me if you have any questions, comments or suggestions. I would love to hear from you!

Be Extraordinary!
