Finding wonderful, undervalued businesses

What happens when the businesses you know are not growing at the desired rate, or are not selling below their intrinsic value? The other option is to find a business of which you have some cursory knowledge, and take the time to learn more about the business and the industry. Ultimately you want to find companies that you understand that are both high quality and have stock prices that are well below their intrinsic value.

electronic filing was implemented

electronic filing was implemented. To me, this was unbelievable. Electronic filing was so much less complicated compared to doing it the old fashioned way. So I wondered: ‘what could they be training them?’ Electronic filing was a simple method of point and click."
"However, because of the massive number of attorneys and law firm personnel who were not up-to-date with new technology, the bankruptcy court offered the PACER training for filing the petition. But I did wonder why the bankruptcy court didn't develop an online tutorial that provided a video filmed on the computer screen. A person could simply click a link and watch a step-by-step video from their computer without leaving their desk.

Prior to mandatory electronic filing, most bankruptcy attorneys continued using the old-fashioned paper method. This was the exact same thing they had done for the past 10, 15 or 20 years. At that time, only internet and computer-savvy bankruptcy attorneys used PACER (Public Access to Court Electronic Records) to file their bankruptcy petitions.

But when the bankruptcy law was changed on October 17, 2005 — the attorneys were forced to prepare well-detailed bankruptcy petitions. In fact, the new law even allows the court to impose a fine on the attorney for not using due diligence in verification of the information within the petition. This helped to create a panic with some attorneys while others simply did not want to invest the time it would take to prepare well-detailed bankruptcy petitions.
But Victoria Ring points out in one of her many published articles:
