Michael P. said Five Stars. Lot of good info on Munger and how Berkshire Hathaway got it's start.. Must read book The book brings out the mysterious personality of Charlie Munger and his progress as an investor. It is not a book to read if you want to learn Charlie's approach to investing but can be a great guide if you want to model your life on the likes of Charlie and Buffett. It gives insights into the mind of two great people who have had the courage to stand against one and all when they thought they were right.. Warren's other half Teresa J. Molinaro The book is very readable and interesting. Munger is a pretty private person, so there's not as much about his personal life as some might like. But his financial journey is amazing and you learn as much about Buffett as you do Munger. The wit of both men appears often in the book and lightens the numbers crunching for those not as interested in the financial details.
