Love Buffett’s response to “when did you know you were rich?” Particularly the highlighted part.
Everything seems to have an extra zero in front of it these days. Signs of a bubble, or maybe i need to accumulate 10-20years of inflation in my head?
Warren Buffett on inflation proof businesses
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…

Given good businesses get stronger in a recession (market share gain), we will finally get to apply this ‘good business’ filter after 13-14yrs
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.
I see a lot of organizations relying too much on slide decks relative to actual written memos for their internal communications. Presentations are great but prose has a unique value in clarifying thought and creating an unambiguous record.
