School is not a finish line.
Napoleon Hill’s rule:
The way of success is the way of continuous pursuit of knowledge.
Graduation is a date. Learning is the business.
Would you rather finish school — or refuse to finish learning?

Steal One Idea - Warren Buffett 01/12
Applause is a terrible accountant.
Warren Buffett’s life rule:
Play the inner scorecard.
Judge yourself by your own standards, not applause.
Outer scorecard people do what looks smart.
Inner scorecard people do what is smart — and can look foolish for years.
If the crowd is your auditor, you will sell the right thing too early.
Would you rather look smart this quarter — or be right in ten years?

A formula feels professional. It also makes you miss the one deal that matters.
Charlie Munger: “We are individual opportunity driven.”
Scale and domination can become a moat — informational advantage plus social proof.

A business that keeps asking for more capital is not compounding. It’s feeding.
Charlie Munger: liquidity of mind and cash. Study capital allocators.
Prefer businesses that throw off cash and don’t eat capital.

High IQ with no temperament is a way to blow up in public.
Charlie Munger: temperament over IQ
Independent thought. Ignore wrong examples even when the crowd is loud.
Control envy, not greed, runs the world.
No self-pity after blows.

Charlie Munger: patience is the un-copyable edge.
He did not succeed by intelligence. He succeeded because of a long attention span.

Berkshire was not a 400-page contract. It was a handshake with people who would not steal.
Charlie Munger: trust is one of the greatest economic forces on earth.
Avoid “rat poison” people
Would you hand someone your capital on a handshake?

Charlie Munger: incentives first — never think about anything else first.
Show me the incentive, I’ll show you the outcome.
Get them wrong and even good people will loot the firm. Get them right at the start and the company can grow.

A $30 biography has beaten more MBA lectures than anyone wants to admit.
Charlie Munger: multidisciplinary mental models.
Steal the big ideas from the big disciplines and connect them.

What’s one book that changed how you see money?

Most “genius” is just not repeating the same dumb move for 30 years.
Charlie Munger: avoiding stupidity for decades is genius.
Don’t try to be brilliant. Don’t be dumb, repeatedly.

What’s one dumb move you finally stopped repeating?

[Phuoc Cao @Cao82]

Charlie Munger: wisdom is prevention.
Wise people don’t solve hard problems; they avoid them.
Invert. Get what you want by refusing what you don’t want.
“All I want to know is where I’m going to die, so I’ll never go there.”

[Phuoc Cao @Cao82]

Playing games where other people have the edge is how smart people go broke.
If others have the edge and you don’t, you lose.
Extreme specialization beats trying to understand the whole world.

Owning 40 positions is often a costume for “I don’t know.”
Charlie Munger: good ideas are rare. Bet heavily when you find them.
A career is a handful of decisions. Fold most hands. Shove a few.
Are you diversified or unconvinced?

The most expensive habit in investing is buying mediocre businesses because they’re cheap.
Buy wonderful businesses at fair prices.
Would you rather own a fair business at a wonderful price — or a wonderful business at a fair price?

Jensen Huang Just Said,

“Cybersecurity is likely the next major growth area for artificial intelligence.”

This is a HUGE validation for the sector.

Here’s the Cybersecurity Basket: 👇
$CRWD | CrowdStrike
$PANW | Palo Alto Networks
$FTNT | Fortinet
$NET | Cloudflare
$S | SentinelOne
$ZS | Zscaler
$RBRK | Rubrik
$OKTA | Okta

Jensen also said AI is making cyber threats evolve faster, which will only fuel demand for AI-powered cybersecurity and automated defense.

I’ve been saying this since the massive SaaS selloff earlier this year.

The cybersecurity opportunity is only getting bigger. We are in the early innings.

Are you finally going to listen? 👀🚀
