Our Influences



Here are some of the books that have shaped our investment philosophies. We have split them up into two categories: Highly Influential Investing Books and Highly Influential (Non-Investing). Both sets of books are very much worth reading.

If you are a highly motivated and proactive individual, we highly recommended reading these books. Even if you plan on hiring a professional investment advisor to watch over your investment portfolio, you should still understand the basics of investing, which several of the books in the Highly Influential Investing Books category can provide.

On the other hand, the books in the Highly Influential (Non-Investing) Books category provides many insights into a vast array of subjects.

If you are looking for a good place to start, read “Poor Charlie’s Almanack: The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger“. Indeed, most of the other books were recommended by that book.
