Encyclopaedia of lessons on how to be successful! A pricey book but worth buying

August 23, 2016

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Poor Charlie's Almanac has been on my reading list for the last couple of years. It took me a six-month sabbatical (and then some) to get through it. This is a testament to the information, lessons, references and stories from Charlie Munger. Fundamentally, this book is an encyclopedia of information on what it takes to be successful and to achieve greatness in what it is you want to do in life; all from a very successful and extremely well read (and connected) 90-ish year old billionaire!

Let's be clear, this is not a book that you can quickly skim through, but rather a book you spend quality time with every day; for a good couple of months. This way you're giving yourself the best change of retaining all of Charlie's tidbits of wisdom. One of the great things about this book is the plethora of quotes from successful entrepreneurs, historians, philosophers alike whose ideas and writings have survived the test of time.

Suffice to say, this is one of those books I'm going to re-read, reference and quote for the rest of my life. Well worth a purchase!

Three Key Takeaways from the book:
1. Charlie knows no wise people who didn't read all the time. It is more than just reading though, one has to grab ideas and do sensible things. Most people do not identify ideas, and if they do, they do not know what to do with them
2. Diversification in investing is something that Charlie doesn't believe in. His recommendation is to choose three good company stocks and invest accordingly. Interesting approach given most financial advisors typically recommend the opposite
3. Self-pity is always counter-productive, It's the wrong way to think. And when you avoid it you get a great advantage over everybody else or almost everybody else, because self-pity is a standard response. And you can train yourself out of it

Well worthe the investment!!!

February 2, 2018

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

My son had asked for this as a gift. I wasn't sure it would fit the budget, it seemed expensive. When he opened it, it was well worth it. He read it everyday and shared bits of wisdom and information with us. He rarely put the book down during his extended visit. He insisted it was the best book he ever read.

If you’re looking for wisdom (life & investment)

July 21, 2018

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Price is what you pay and Value is what you get - this book’s value outweighs its seemingly expensive price by hundred and thousands.
Don’t waste time reading books and articles about Charlie: just go to this original source for his thinking process.

What I found most beneficial are:
- the original speeches included in this book provide a comprehensive list, examples, and elaborations on his “lattice of mental models”
- the wisdom you can glean from this book can be applied amply to both life in general and investment specifically
- his multidisciplinary approach and constant reminder for you to raise these learning to fluency through usage can be absolutely exhilarating for any life learner

The list can go on, but the takeaway is this: buy it, read it, truly learn it and make it your own. My only regret is that I didn’t come across this book earlier, and when I did, the price of the book put me off a few years from purchasing it.

Really an Awesome Gem!

Teriffic read with many profound ideas. I had held off on purchasing it due to the price but it is well worth it. It’s a big book but the print is large and there are tons of fun illustrations which drive home the points so it’s actually quite easy to read. This is a window into a very great mind.

One of the best books I've read. If you spend time thinking beyond the surface of Charlie's philosophy, this book will be extremely rewarding.

This book is just awesome. Every marketer should have it. Learning and understanding the 25 cognitive biases alone are worth 100 times what I paid for the book. This is one of the top books on marketing I've ever read, bar none...

Highly recommended.

Even though it is an expensive book, it is worth every penny. Especially for the section where he explains the cognitive biases.
