Now that National Thrift Week is over, we’re eager to return to our examination of Sir John’s economic virtues and vices from the lecture he delivered at Buena Vista College, but before we do that, we probably ought to do another Link Roundup. The new year seems to have brought a flurry of Templeton name dropping around the web. Here are some highlights:
- “John Templeton’s 20 / 20 Vision” from The Independent Investor (great in-depth article)
- “A Message from our CEO” from Franklin Resources, Inc. (a glimpse of Sir John’s enduring legacy)
- “The master rules of forecasting” from The Financial Times (an examination of one of Sir John’s prediction skills)
- “A fresh start” from Market Watch (interesting perspective on Sir John’s philosophies by someone who knew him personally)
- Three great ones from Motley Fool:
- “How to Let Profits Find You”
- “The Difference Between Investing and Gambling”
- “16 Tips from Sir John Templeton” (this one, in particular, has excellent, practical advice)

Thank you for putting all these links together in one place. It was very helpful, and I enjoyed and benefited from reading the articles.
