“It is important to develop a habit of avoiding catastrophe”
We had recently hosted a webinar with William Green—author of the book “Richer, Wiser, Happier”. William has interviewed many fund managers over the decades and has captured his learnings from those meetings in the book “Richer, Wiser, Happier”. Below are the key highlights of the webinar (for watching the entire webinar please click here).
How to become rich? – By not making big mistakes.
In his book and webinar, William says that all the great fund managers avoid making big mistakes. Smart investors avoid making big mistakes by avoiding the below things which most of us end up doing:
- Chase assets they don’t understand
- Buying the priciest and most popular asset/stock
- Chase latest fad
- Trade too often
- Buying cyclical companies without understanding the downturns
- Making macro predictions
- Desire to become rich very soon, etc
As Charlie Munger says, “great investing requires a lot of delayed gratification” and hence it is important for us to stay invested in good set of companies long term and allow it to compound.
Apart from wealth, focus on health & happiness
Apart from compounding wealth, one common aspect amongst all the great fund managers is that they also focus on their health and happiness. One must identify a handful of habits like exercising regularly, meditation, take good sleep, eat healthy, spend time with family etc. and make it part of their day-to-day life.
To conclude, we will request you to read the book and/or listen to the webinar to know how the world’s greatest investors win in markets and life.
