Reviews


“In trying to bring you a review of this extraordinary book I find it difficult to know where to start: there are 480 pages and every page has a mind numbingly brilliant line. Almost every page has a fascinating side bar commentary... I can't write a review that spells out the extraordinary amount of investment and human wisdom in each page of what is a magnificently presented book. I have never seen a publication like this!

I can't recommend this book too much, having so far bought eight or nine copies for myself and close investor friends, mostly the autographed edition as it is so special! Having read it from cover to cover, I now intend to read it again, cover to cover.”

“Usually the hottest reading material of the year among Berkshire Hathaway's famously devoted shareholders is the company's folksy annual report. But this year acolytes are devouring a new book: Poor Charlie's Almanack”
  –Fortune Magazine (June 27, 2005)
“Poor Charlie's Almanack - The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger is a 480-page hard-cover book designed to fit on the coffee tables of smart people, or at least people who hope to become smarter.”
  – Steve Jordon, Omaha World-Herald
“It has to be said that a good deal of what Munger has to say is fresh, invigorating and (in my judgement) almost entirely right”

“I know several successful fund managers who swear these are among the best things about investment they have ever come across”
  –The Independent (May 28, 2005)
“Time and again you'll learn – and even chuckle – as you read this impressive book.”
  –J.V. Bruni and Company


“Peter is a friend, Wesco board member and fellow Charlie admirer, and last year came up with the brilliant idea of putting together a book that would honor Charlie and capture all of the wisdom he's shared over the years in one place, so the maximum number of people might benefit from it.”
  –Whitney Tilson


“Peter and his expert team put everything into this book and I think that the result is nothing short of breathtaking.”
