Rule #1 Investing’s methodology is centered on the Four M’s framework—Meaning, Moat, Management, and Margin of Safety—which guides learners through a repeatable process for analyzing companies and understanding valuation principles. These ideas are also reflected in Phil Town’s published work, including the Rule #1 book.Rule #1 Investing serves a global audience of beginner and experienced everyday investors who want clear, principles-based investing education delivered in plain English.

Phil and his team are awesome. There is a considerable amount of funds needed for this workshop but they stayed true to their promise of not sellling anything to us. Lot of good learnings from this workshop. Definitely recommend someone that is a beginner or intermediate in investing.

This informational class gives you the tools and knowledge that sets you up for success. This is a very informative class that explains the rules for success. If you follow the process as it is presented you can and will achieve financial freedom. You determine your outcome by the time and dedication you put in. This process is not overwhelming and doesn't require hours sitting in front of your computer. In as little as 30 minutes a day, and following the process, you can work your way to long term financial freedom. Thank you Rule1 team for everything.

Enjoyed the analysis, and the coaching on evaluating companies. I love the focus on finding good, solid companies that are on sale. Thumbs up!

Did the in-person workshop. I enjoyed the process. I laughed. I LEARNED a TON. It wasn't just Phil. It was a cadre of coaches who have learned a ton as well, and pass it on. Fundamentals of business analysis that I personally have struggled for years to understand, such as a discounted cash flow analysis and valuing a company with a margin of safety, were things I could ask over and over from very patient people who answered every time until I understood. I wasn't compensated to write this review, nor did I have to buy into anything to participate. If you go, go with an open mind and some good note-taking software, whether you know anything about investing or not. Even 1% better returns is a lot over time!

I have been a coach since January 2015. In 2015 my wife’s and my investing accounts were in the range of 300 k,now they are over 2.5 million. We will be forever grateful to the Rule One organization for sharing what they know with the rest of the world.
