Charlie Munger: The Complete Investor | Book Review

Charlie Munger the complete investor by tren griffin, and this entire book is basically just a collection of things Charlie Munger has said but put in an understandable way for people to understand and get a clear picture

?1 on 1 Talk + My Budget + Stock Investments?

1. Finding a Moat
- Moat is basically a competitive edge against the competition
- In capitalism, the more successful you are the more people and business want to get ahead of you ( so failure is as normal as success)
- So having a good business is one part, but also have a good business with a strong brand also

Study:
- People did a blind taste test and a normal one with coca-cola
- Coca-cola would often lose the taste test blinded but win the normal one
- Because it's not about the soda taste but it's about the brand.

2. Volatility is not Risk
- I just learned this today
- But a lot analyst and especially yahoo finance
- They also represent a risk as volatility of the price ( because it's easier to gage) – but that’s because those people have a job doing that

The truth is:
- The true risk is taking action without understanding what your doing
- Or getting into an investment that’s to complicated to understand
- Or even worst giving your money to someone else to get you mediocre returns

3. Index vs stock picker ( based on what you enjoy)
- Charlie said something very important
- If you don’t love and like discovering how a business works and figuring out its value
- Then you probably will not be a good stock picker ( value investor)

But if you want to get the average return of the market:
- Just invest into a low-cost index fund and let compound interest and time do the rest
- And on average, you’ll beat the professionals
- Because 95% of people cant won't beat the index

4. Trained reactions ( not relying on instincts as much)
- When I first started investing, my biggest concern was what if I lose my money
- What if the stock goes down today
- But today when I see my investments go down, I actually get happy ( and that’s a trained reaction ( because I understand I'm getting a discount)

To be a good investor:
- You cant sell every time the market goes down and panic
- You need to read more and understand the market
- So you get a better idea of what's happening and change your reaction

5. Buying good companies for fair prices instead of bad companies for bargains
- Here is another story, when I use to look for investments ( I use to go on the looser section of yahoo finance and look for discounts)
- But its better and smarter to look for good companies that will be around for a long time, and produce a return on your money
- So Charlie and Buffet would both recommend looking for good companies at a fair price or a bargain.

6. Companies can go from good to bad quickly ( remember kodak and the newspaper)
- But also 1997 I was born and Apple was about to go bankrupt if it wasn’t for Microsoft 150M dollar investment
- General Motors went bankrupt

Here is a Tip: although the size of a company is important it's not the only factor, companies can and will go bankrupt. ( so understand it and analyze them)

7. Benjamin Graham Value Principles
- This is Warren Buffets Hero in some ways like Benjamin Franklin is Charlies

Value steps:
- Value shares as a part of business not as a piece of paper
- Have a margin of safety when you buy an investment
- Mr market is Bypolor ( some days his high and some days his down, don’t let that change your investment decisions)
- Be rational ( this is learned and trained and usually not natural)

8. Philip Fisher
