Richer, Wiser, Happier
by William Green
Green's profiles of great investors, Pabrai, Templeton, Marks, Munger, Bogle, Greenblatt and others, focused on their habits of mind and life: simplicity, patience, cloning, resilience and the pursuit of a good life, not just returns. It is unusually well written for an investing book and its lessons extend beyond money.
Read it if…
you want life wisdom from investors, not just investing wisdom.
Skip it if…
you want technical content; it is about character and habits.
Three things you will actually use
- Simplicity and patience outperform cleverness.
- Clone what works; originality is overrated.
- Protect your downside in life as in markets.
Do this first
Pick one investor from the book and adopt one of their daily habits for a month.
Our verdict
Well-written and genuinely wise.
