Why the Name?

There’s usually a lot that goes into a name. That is not the case with this blog..

I chose this name a long time ago. It’s based on a quote that has always stuck with me… In the preface of The Intelligent Investor, Warren Buffet wrote: 

Walter Lippmann spoke of men who plant trees that other men will sit under. Ben Graham was such a man.

Warren Buffet

I’m not sure why but I’ve always remembered this quote. So in 2014 I bought the domain. In retrospect the name kind of sucks but who cares? No one is reading this blog anyway…
