Charles Munger: 32 Books That Every Investor Should Read
A couple of weeks ago Tobias and I compiled our list of 50 Of The Best Investing Books Of All Time. Last week we put together our list of Seth Klarman’s: 32 Books That Every Investor Should Read. This week we’ve compiled our list of Charles Munger’s: 32 Books That Every Investor Should Read. Munger has been quoted as saying:
Q2 hedge fund letters, conference, scoops etc
“In my whole life, I have known no wise people (over a broad subject matter area) who didn’t read all the time-none, zero. You’d be amazed at how much Warren reads-and at how much I read. My children laugh at me. They think I’m a book with a couple of legs sticking out.”
