Munger epitomized 3 traits– rationality, judgment, bluntness. He saw the world as it actually was. He saw through the world, to distil its essence. He said it as he saw it. He didn’t merely teach us how to invest, he showed us how to think. My eulogy ... buggyhuman.substack.com/p/charlie-mung…

A timeless reminder from Warren Buffett: "The behavior of peer companies, whether they are expanding, acquiring, setting executive compensation or whatever, will be mindlessly imitated."


Reporting FCF and adj. Ebitda without factoring in stock based comp (that companies often buyback from the market in real cash) is trickery All tech companies figured out a way to constantly raise capital from employees; a ceo confident in the business’ future shouldn’t do this..

Many investors dont want to bet on the multiple and just on earnings growth, but being wrong on the multiple is just being wrong on the projection of LT cash flow, as the fundamental value equation doesnt talk about a multiple which is just a short hand

I have always instinctively been against the use of the LTV / CAC formula - for me it was qualitative reasons that drive customer acquisition resulting in the math and not the other way round. Came across a 2012 post from @bgurley who puts it beautifully abovethecrowd.com/2012/09/04/the…

Slide decks hide can shallow thinking. Narratively structured memos are harder to write because they require better thinking. It’s worth it.
