The problem is Clean Surplus has never been tested until now, and thus has not been used except by a very few, extremely successful people such as Warren Buffett. The diminutive amount of research work on Clean Surplus prior to Dr. Farwell's research attempts to use Clean Surplus as a discounting valuation model. However, as with all discounting valuation models, we know by the failure of 96% of money managers (public mutual funds) to consistently outperform the averages over a 10-year time period, that these models just don’t work very well. Buffett uses Clean Surplus to develop a Clean Surplus Return on Equity (ROE) rather than using the traditional accounting ROE as a comparison ratio in order to assess the consistency of the operating efficiency of a company and also the level of that operating efficiency. Dr. Farwell uses the Clean Surplus ROE to construct portfolios “predicted” to consistently outperform the market averages.

Despite the glowing praise and anticipation of reviewers, the book only ended up selling two thousand copies.

By 1930 he was no longer the promising new literary star, but a literary has-been, only occasionally publishing poems and reviews. He lived for almost forty more years in obscurity.
Folk art is usually made by an untrained artist on something less valuable than a fine art piece would be. “A black and white print by a great photographer, however, is far more valuable than the painting done by a mediocre artist.” (Lewis, 22) This explains one of the biggest distinctions between these two categories of art. Another example would be an artist called Grandma Moses. “Born on a farm in New York in 1860 but did not really begin painting until the 1930’s, when she was almost 80. Although she had no formal training, her pictures became so popular that by the time she died in 1961, she was a household name in the United States, and her scenes were reproduced on everything from greeting cards to kitchen curtains.
Though limited with the inability of being able to capture the movement with the daguerreotype, Herman’s photograph allows for the one of the first documentations of a tragedy that occurred in Germany. With time, photography advanced and the limitations were close to none. Over the next one hundred and sixty years, recording history with the camera became a popular form of documenting history. We can read about history in the books, but nothing comes close to seeing a photograph of a scene from history. The perspective is far more tangible than words can describe.
