The Essays of Warren Buffett — Lessons for Investors and Managers

Every year, Warren Buffett writes an annual letter to Berkshire’s shareholders, and these letters have since become the gospel for not only value investors, but for anyone serious about learning how to not only become a better investor, but also a better businessman, a better executive, and a more effective leader.

I’m about to finish this book soon and it’s really full of wisdom, both in breadth and depth! I have personally gained many takeaways from this book (check out my first two key takeaways here and here), after investing for about two years, and I have to say this is a must for any serious investor!

“Experienced readers of Warren Buffett’s letters to the shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. have gained an enormous valuable informal education. The letters distill in plain words all the basic principles of sound business practices. On selecting managers and investments, valuing businesses, and using financial information profitably, the writings are broad in scope, and long on wisdom. By arranging these writings as thematic essays, this collection presents a synthesis of the overall business and investment philosophy intended for dissemination to a wide general audience” — Lawrence A. Cunningham
