Refreshingly straight forward investing talk!
I thought Ahrens book would be gimmicky, as it turns out, it was anything but gimmicky. Ahrens' take on the gaming, alcohol, tobacco and defense industries being an essential part of any investors portfolio is well thought out and credible. For those investors looking to recession proof their portfolio, Ahrens' book on vice investing is a great resource. I enjoyed the book in large part because it was an easy read, but very informative.

Lord Help Me
Investing in Vice is a very insightful with straight forward and well developed ideas on the virtues of investing in vice. A must read for all investors and a great portfolio diversification strategy. The author is a sage voice in a sector where the hype, glam, politics, and zeal often overshadow the reality that many of the companies are great performers and stocks.
