Cultivating a Disaster Resistant, Compound Interest Machine — Brent Beshore (Invest Like the Best EP.10)

Cultivating a Disaster Resistant, Compound Interest Machine — Brent Beshore (Invest Like the Best EP.10)

The episode Kyle credits as the initial impetus for Investing 101 2.0 — Brent Beshore on building a firm that is structurally and culturally unlike a fund. Two lines that stuck: “academic masturbation” for studying instead of doing, and “I’ve read pretty much everything Buffett and Munger have ever said or written. That’s table stakes in investing.”

Notes

  • “Academic Masterbation” - studying just for the sake of studying rather than getting into the world and learning live
  • “I’ve read pretty much everything Buffet and Munger have ever said or written. That’s table stakes in investing.”
