"For those who love ... " overused idioms, choppy dialogue, and a hypocritical premise.
1 Star
"For those who love ... " overused idioms, choppy dialogue, and a hypocritical premise.
Updated edit: Gave it another 20 pages. Author remains a pompous self-indulgent hack that has written the worst book on Buffet and Munger. The other reviews are probably paid for. I threw my copy in the trash, as seen in attached photo.____________________________________________From the back flap... "[This book is] for those who love efficiency, simplicity and common sense or judgement." Yet this whole book is fraught with redundant idioms. On top of this, there are two underdeveloped characters responding to Buffett and Munger by quoting other historical figures. The chopped structure of B and M quotes frankenstein-stitched between Matisse and Sitcom quotes makes it unreadable. Just go read the annual berkshire letters. Don’t waste your time or money.

This is a great job done by Mr. Peter. The amount of effort and time taken to put all this together is what makes it a great book. Anything about Mr. Munger and Buffet is worth reading. 90+ years of mental clearity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yes, truly great wisdom...now what?
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2017
Verified Purchase
Exceedingly great wisdom and tested theory to heed.

AND now the question is what to do with it, for wisdom must, in my view, include knowing enough to actually create the desired result - and actually lead to the result being created. Stopping short is not wise - and is a waste of one's time, other than the benefit of mental entertainment.

The book is, I think, essential to wisdom in life, organized and put together exceedingly well and the character/story format is very enjoyable and educational and relevant. Definitely a 5 star +.

Now, the reader's job is to "complete" the rest of the sequence (causal chain) that will lead to effectively implementing this wisdom into one's life. If this book is read but not understood deeply and put into full effect, the learning process is not complete, for there is little point to learning if one does not actually achieve the desired end-points (desired results).

So, based on this excellent book, I shall, for myself and my readers, write out the rest of the sequence so that this is fully implemented into my life and hopefully the lives of others who choose the same journey.

Again, a great job and a definite strong(est) recommendation to read this book - and digest it!

The interview-like format of the book makes it a quick, easy, enjoyable read that is PACKED with more memorable, quotable wisdom per page than any book I’ve ever read!
A collection of tbe “best of” Buffett and Munger, perhaps as much as 2/3 of it revolves around business and investing, there is plenty of advice and wisdom and life more broadly so that anyone can get a lot of value out of this wonderful book.

Another fantastic addition to the world of knowledge and mental models from Peter Bevelin. Synthesizing the thoughts of Buffett and Munger over the years into certain topics, as well as adding his own voice and a character for the wise to guide through the topics makes the wisdom from different sources, and often many years apart, flow nicely throughout. It is one of those few books worth re-reading at frequent intervals.

Practical concepts that the world will always lose sight of. The full example of the phrase “common sense is not so common”. These rules and guidelines that are primarily based on discipline, patience and simplicity will be outstanding.

For those interested in Charlie Munger this book is great. The central idea is that avoiding stupidity is the easier way to greatness.
Many lessons and insights. This book is even better than Seeking Wisdom, also by Peter Bevelin. Enjoyed it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life changing: one of the most important books I have ever read
Reviewed in Australia on January 13, 2020
Verified Purchase
Peter Bevelin is an elusive and secretive thinker-doer who I discovered and found credible after discovering references to him in Nassim Taleb's works (the two are friends). Sometimes I wonder whether the secrecy and low-key nature of Peter and his books is some kind of test: seeing if you are smart and independent enough to look beyond the glitz and opinions of other people to identify enormous value in something that is inconspicuous. This is one of Peter Bevelin's most important works, delivering most of his lessons in business and life, if you read carefully, the knowledge and wisdom you gain is life changing. I have created a separate document of notes from this book and it is 17 pages, and I refer to this frequently. One minor flaw is that the book hasn't been edited, it could benefit from more structure and presentation, but this is irrelevant in light of the book being a treasure trove of wisdom and useful techniques.
