About So You Want to Be a Superinvestor?
It is human nature to make simple things more complicated than they actually are. Investing is no exception. From our early days in school, we are briefly taught about the stock market, given complex formulas to take a quantitative approach, and use Greek letters to define terms in the stock market. The constant use of phrases like "smart money" by the media makes you believe you have to know everything about investing to have a chance to succeed. However, there are always two sides to every coin. So You Want to Be a Superinvestor? examines what we were taught about investing from academia and then questions this conventional thinking. Do the greatest investors like Warren Buffett and other Superinvestors also use the conventional wisdom, or do they think about investing differently? Is this nonconventional investing approach accessible to all or only ultrawealthy millionaires?
In this easy-to-understand book, the author details his own journey into investing from his early influences from his dad, to what he learned in the realm of academia, to researching other great Superinvestors. Across various books and media, these wildly successful investors have shared their teachings on evaluating companies, how to think about market cycles, investor mindsets, and how the macro economy effects investing.
So You Want to Be a Superinvestor? is a comprehensive book that takes the various lessons learned from the Superinvestors and illustrates these points by using examples from the authors own life. The author also makes observations on market moving events, the changing psychology of investors, and provides research and examples from history to guide you in your investing journey. These principles can be used by beginners to intermediate investors to emulate the success of the greats.
