Summary

Billionaire investors. If we think of them, it's with a mixture of awe and suspicion. Clearly, they possess a kind of genius - the proverbial Midas Touch. But are the skills they possess transferable? And would we really want to be them? Do they have anything to teach us besides making money?

In Richer, Wiser, Happier, award-winning journalist William Green has spent nearly 25 years interviewing these investing wizards and discovered that their talents expand well beyond the financial realm and into practical philosophy.

Green ushers us into the lives of more than 40 of the world's super-investors, visiting them in their offices, vacation homes and even their places of worship - all to share what they have to teach us. Green brings together the thinking of some of the best investors, from Warren Buffet to Howard Marks to John Templeton, and provides gems of insight that will enrich you not only financially but also professionally and personally.

Narrator

The narrator seems to think this is Shakespeare. I haven’t even finished the book and he is so distracting; it’s a shame because it’s a great book. I’ll persevere but I imagine many wouldn’t. Ensuring the narrator is well matched to the book is really important but seems to not be considered…it certainly wasn’t in this case.

A masterpiece about investing philosophy

A brilliant book, very well written and extremely interesting. It does provide a wonderful insight on how great investors live and think, without making references to specific investment techniques, but rather only to very broad principles. William Green has spent a lot of energy to go deeply into the mind of those people and has summarized his views in an incredibly effective way. Highly recommended.

More than I expected, thoroughly enjoyed

More than the investment side it was a pleasure to listen to the life wisdom of these investors. Candid portrayals and deeper exploration of how these people tick.

I am probably going to buy a print version to highlight some of the key ideas that I want to adopt, as well as re-listen

A good inspirational piece

Lots of inspirational storytelling. Not so much of an investing advice, but surely something that will can change your angle when thinking about investing, money and life as an investor in general

Investment wisdom and philosophy

Being in the field of finance this book certainly wasn't the first one I read on the subject of investing. However I had never regarded the philosophical aspects of investing in such depth and I think this is an aspect which is absolutely unique to Green's presentation of the topic. An audiobook which I will definitely listen several times.
