William Green

"One of the best investing books ever written." --Charlie Munger From an award-winning financial journalist, a fresh and insightful book that draws on interviews with more than forty of the world's super-investors to demonstrate that the keys to building wealth also apply to everyday life. Billionaire investors. If we think of them, it's with a mixture of awe and suspicion. Clearly, they possess a kind of genius--the proverbial Midas Touch. But are the skills they possess transferable? And do they have anything to teach us besides making money. In Richer, Wiser, Happier, William Green draws on interviews that he's conducted over twenty-five years with many of the world's greatest investors. As he discovered, their talents extend well beyond the financial realm. The most successful investors are mavericks and iconoclasts who question conventional wisdom and profit vastly from their ability to think more rationally, rigorously, and objectively. They are master game players who consciously maximize their odds of long-term success in markets and life, while also minimizing any risk of catastrophe. They draw powerful insights from many different fields, are remarkably intuitive about trends, practice fanatical discipline, and have developed a high tolerance for pain. As Green explains, the best investors can teach us not only how to become rich, but how to improve the way we think, reach decisions, assess risk, avoid costly errors, build resilience, and turn uncertainty to our advantage. Green ushers us into the lives of more than forty super-investors, visiting them in their offices, homes, and even their places of worship--all to share what they have to teach us. From Sir John Templeton to Charlie Munger, Jack Bogle to Ed Thorp, Will Danoff to Mohnish Pabrai, Joel Greenblatt to Howard Marks, Green explains how they think and why they win. Profound, practical, and "unexpectedly illuminating" (Peter Diamandis), Richer, Wiser, Happier provides "many nuggets of wisdom" (The Washington Post) that will enrich you both financially and personally.

Over a period from early March 2020, William Green caught Covid and lost both his parents to it within days of one another. Death and Other Belongings is not so much a record of the external events, but rather a narrative studyof the emotions and anxiety that came with the circumstances and the photographer’s realisation of our fragility and mortality. Green photographs the structures - both physical and political - that exist today as a way to examine the past and decipher how it manifests itself in our contemporary built landscape.

Tunnustatud finantsajakirjanik William Green on viimase veerandsajandi jooksul veetnud sadu tunde maailma parimaid investoreid intervjueerides, naastes ikka ja jälle küsimuse juurde: millised põhimõtted, meetodid, tõdemused, harjumused ning isikuomadused on aidanud neil rikkaks saada. Green on veendunud, et kõige paremad investorid on intellektuaalsed isemõtlejad, kes otsivad lakkamatult võimalusi oma mõtlemist parandada. Charlie Munger, Buffetti ülimalt nutikas partner, on öelnud: "Ma jälgin, mis toimib ja mis ei toimi, ning miks." Tema eeskujude seas on Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin ning 19. sajandi algebra spetsialist Carl Gustav Jacobi. "Oppisin palju surnud inimestelt. Olen alati mõistnud, et on palju surnud inimesi, keda peaksin tundma õppima," on Munger tunnistanud. Green ütleb, et ta mõtleb parimatest investoritest kui praktiliste filosoofide tõust. Nad ammutavad teadmisi paljudest erinevatest valdkondadest - majandusajalugu, neuroteadus, kirjandus, stoitsism, budism, sport, harjumuste kujundamise uuringud, meditatsioon jne -, on trendide osas märkimisväärselt intuitiivsed, harjutavad fanaatilist distsipliini ja on välja töötanud kõrge valutaluvuse. Nad ei soovi lahendada segaseid mõistatusi stiilis "Kas see tool on tegelikult olemas?" Nad otsivad vastuseid märksa pakilisematele probleemidele nagu "Kuidas saan teha tuleviku kohta targemaid otsuseid, kui tulevik on teadmata?" Green kinnitab, et tõenäosustega mängimine on tegutsemiseks harukordselt tõhus viis ja see hõlmab absoluutselt kõike, mida need investorid teevad: kuidas nad oma aega planeerivad; kuidas nad on valvel kallutatuste ja pimenurkade suhtes; kuidas nad oma vigade kordamist väldivad; kuidas nad tulevad toime stressi ja vastaseisudega; kuidas nad raha kulutavad ning kuidas nad ehitavad elu, millel on sügavam, rahast sõltumatu tähendus. Keskkoolis, ülikoolis ja armeeteenistuses pokkerit mänginud Lynch on öelnud: "Oppides mängima pokkerit, õppides mängima bridzhi või õppides ükskõik mida, mis teile tõenäosustega mängimist õpetab... on parem, kui kõik raamatud aktsiaturust." Harjumus mõelda neutraalselt faktidest ja arvudest, tõenäosustest, riski ja tulu tasakaalust aitab selgitada, miks need kõige taiplikumad investorid on elanud pikka ja õnnelikku elu. Raamatus "Rikkam, targem, õnnelikum" saavad sõna terve investeerimislegendide galerii - Templeton, Bogle, Ruane, Buffett, Munger, Miller, Marks ja Greenblatt teiste seas. Nad ei õpetada mitte ainult seda, kuidas rikkaks saada, vaid ka seda, kuidas parandada oma mõtteviisi, teha otsuseid, hinnata riske, vältida kulukaid vigu, suurendada vastupanuvõimet ja muuta ebakindlus enda kasuks.
