Where I heard about it

  • On Jay’s investing reading list — a Google Sheet of 92 books by discipline, saved in Kyle’s Roam notes on April 15th, 2020 (Jay’s Investing Reading List). Jay’s reason: “Case-studies of various businesses in the U.S.”
  • How To Be a Capitalist Without Any Capital — cited there as a book for spotting business models and underlying systems.
  • In Patrick O’Shaughnessy’s A Curriculum for the Modern Investor, saved by Kyle in April 2020 — A Curriculum for the Modern Investor (Patrick O’Shaughnessy).
