Damn Right!: Behind the Scenes with Berkshire Hathaway Billionaire Charlie Munger

I just finished this biography of Charlie Munger. It’s bit outdated (originally published in 2000), but still a very interesting read. I increasingly find myself drawn to biographies and histories in my reading.

This book contains an interesting personal story with a lot of interesting background on the relationship between Charlie Munger and Warren Buffet. I found Munger to be a fascinating character full of tons of wisdom. A few of my favorite quotes:

“People underrate the importance of a few simple big ideas.”

“Success means being very patient but aggressive when it’s time.”

“In my whole life, nobody has ever accused me of being humble. Although humility is a trait I much admire, I don’t think I quite got my full share.”
