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
这本书读在网上读的是台译版,读的不太顺畅,笔记也做的不全。 1. 巴菲特擅长引用简单词汇、通俗故事及寓言,而芒格不屑使用通俗字句,当艰深与浅显的词汇均可表达相同意义时,他宁可多拼些音节。他擅长复杂思考与精密分析,衣着光鲜,拥有7套住房,是忠诚的共和党员。 2. 人...
评分阳老师生日会时,起了一个题目,叫三十六惑。谈到中年男子普遍经历第二次青春期危机时(24-36岁之间),如何对待不公正的待遇和事业挫折。有人回答说,应该奋力反击,迎头赶上。错、错、错!伟人们不是采取对抗的姿态,而是释放自己的情绪,但同时保持之前的节奏。时间复利会证...

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...
