Special Munger Edition

Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett’s brilliant but understated business partner, passed away recently.

Though less famous than Buffett, Munger profoundly shaped Berkshire Hathaway’s strategy over decades.

He convinced Buffett to shift from buying cheap companies to premium quality businesses with durable competitive edges - a pivot key to Berkshire's long-term prosperity.

He leaves behind an unmatched legacy of intellect, ethics and self-improvement that provides timeless inspiration.
