Book & Podcast Reviews
I read and listen to a lot of books and podcasts. Here I cover some of the books I think may be worthwhile taking a look at including a wrap up on ‘who’s it for’ which isn’t intended to be overly prescriptive just who may find more enjoyment out of it. As far as podcast reviews I’ll generally stay away from the already well known podcasts as it seems more valuable sharing recommendations on ones that may not come to your attention as easily.
Hopefully you find something you’ll enjoy!
Nick and Zak’s Adventures in Capitalism: Words of Wisdom from the Nomad Partnership Letters
Nick and Zak’s Adventures in Capitalism could be considered a memoir in discipline, conviction, patience and complete comfort with inactivity. The last part may require qualifying unless you have any existing familiarity with Nick, Zak or Nomad and their investing approach. As successful investors Nick and Zak excel in a trait that is almost counter to most people’s human nature, which is their completely comfortable in ‘doing nothing’ in the sense that if their investment thesis is working, they’ll continue as is without the need to interfere with the beauty of compounding just for the sake of ‘doing something’.
Richer, Wiser, Happier
This will probably be one of the rare instances where I review and recommend a book and podcast in the same post however given the nature of Richer, Wiser, Happier by William Green and the accompanying podcast it makes sense to combine into one.
