“Adam Smith understood markets better than most economists today. The Wealth of Nations is still the best foundation.”
“How to Win Friends and Influence People changed my life. I was 15 when I read it and it's been the most important book in my career.”
“The Intelligent Investor is by far the best book about investing ever written. Graham was my teacher and this is his masterwork.”
“I've been recommending Influence for years. Understanding the principles of persuasion is essential.”
“Charlie Munger's collected wisdom in one volume. The best book on decision-making and mental models ever assembled.”
“Business Adventures is my favorite business book. Brooks wrote about business the way the great novelists wrote about character.”
“Franklin's autobiography is one of the great self-improvement texts. His 13 virtues program still holds up.”
