From the author of the bestselling WARREN BUFFETT SPEAKS. . .
"Charlie Munger, whose reputation is deep and wide, based on an extraordinary record of brilliantly successful business strategies, sees things that others don't. There is a method to his mastery and, through this book, we get a chance to learn about this rare individual." -MICHAEL EISNER, Chairman and CEO, The Walt Disney Company
"Janet Lowe uncovers the iconoclastic genius and subtle charm behind Charlie Munger's curmudgeonly facade in this richly woven portrait of our era's heir to Ben Franklin. With a biographer's detachment, an historian's thoroughness, and a financial writer's common sense, Lowe produces a riveting account of the family, personal, and business life of the idiosyncratically complex and endlessly fascinating figure." -LAWRENCE CUNNINGHAM, Cardozo Law School, Author of The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America
"For years, Berkshire Hathaway shareholders and investors worldwide (me included) have struggled to learn more about Warren Buffett's cerebral sidekick. Now we can rest and enjoy reading Janet Lowe's book about this rare intellectual jewel called Charlie Munger." -ROBERT G. HAGSTROM, Author of The Warren Buffett Way
"Charlie has lived by the creed that one should live a life that doesn't need explaining. But his life should be explained. In a city where heroism is too often confused with celebrity, Charlie is a true hero and mentor. He lives the life lessons that he has studiously extracted from other true heroes and mentors, from Ben Franklin to Ben Graham. This book illuminates those life lessons." -RONALD L. OLSON, Munger, Tolles & Olson llp
"Janet Lowe's unprecedented access to Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett has resulted in a first-class book that investors, academics, and CEOs will find entertaining and highly useful."-TIMOTHY P. VICK, Money Manager and Author of How to Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett
假如你读过滚雪球和穷查理宝典,那么本书便不值一读:那两本书已经完完全全地把本书覆盖了,而反之却不成立。当然,如果你没有读过那两本书,你可以去读这本书。不过很显然,那两本书才是更好的选择。
评分无论如何,沃伦巴菲特和查理芒格在1959年的那次相遇,都称得上是一次伟大的相遇。 如果不是这次相遇,查理可能还是芒格-托尔斯-希尔斯-伍德律师事务所的一名合伙人,同时兼职做一些房地产的开发。要知道那个年代的律师远不如现在这样吃香,只有加上房地产的收入,芒格才可以从...
评分最好的传记是,作者既理解了这个人生命的轨迹,他的丰富的内心世界,又能把那些重要而精彩的华彩篇章描述的引入入胜。 次之则是能讲一些故事堆彻的人生,虽然这些故事并非这个人代表事件或反映,不过把故事讲的很精彩,也让读者受益匪浅。 最差的就是二者都没有。这本就是。 要...
评分获益匪浅。我要将之前的“推荐”改为“力荐”。 如果说巴菲特是一个善于借用别人思想并将它转化为自己实践的人,那么,芒格是一个真正原创型的思想家。在同样成功的投资实践的背后,是查理对方法论的深入思考。 这种认识在读了查理的两篇演讲之后印象尤其深刻。 也许是因为...
