Publisher's summary

Will there ever be another investing book quite like this? It's unlikely.

University of Berkshire Hathaway is a remarkable retelling of the lessons, wisdom, and investment strategies handed down personally from Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger to shareholders during 30 years of their closed-door annual meetings.

From this front row seat, you'll see one of the greatest wealth-building records in history unfold, year by year.

If you're looking for dusty old investment theory, there are hundreds of other books waiting to cure you of insomnia. However, if you're looking for an investing book that's as personal as it is revelatory, look no further.

Packed with Buffett and Munger's timeless, generous, and often hilarious wisdom, University of Berkshire Hathaway will keep serious investors listening late into the night:

  • Get unique insight into the thinking, strategies, and decisions- both good and bad - that made Buffett and Munger two of the world's greatest investors.
  • Understand the critical reasoning that leads Buffett and Munger to purchase a particular company, including their methods for assigning value.
  • Learn the central tenets of Buffett's value-investing philosophy "straight from the horse's mouth."
  • Enjoy Munger's biting wit as he goes after any topic that offends him.
  • Discover Buffett's distaste for "commonly accepted strategies" like modern portfolio theory.
  • See why these annual meetings are often called "an MBA in a weekend."

The best book on the dynamic duo's words.

Although repeatative at times, but still the most comprehensive account of Buffet & Munger's words of advice out there. Needless to get a whole lot of books on this same subject, just this one is enough.

Consistent message hammered home over 30 years

Neat document and insight into the workings of BH. Really though, the information to glean could be summarized in a 3-5 pages: Buy good companies at bargain prices, go against the herd, the best investment is always yourself and your own learning, always continue to learn, Sees candy is a great business, nuclear diaster is emenent, choose your friends wisely, corporate options are poison, derivatives are a mess, and choose the right parents. That really covers a lot of the book, it's just repeated over and over. So it's a good to have a document showing Buffet and Munger's consistency. There are also moments when you realize they are speaking before major events happened and you have insight to how prescient they are.

Primary Source on Berkshire

This book is a great source to study the rise of the greatest holding company the world has ever seen. Buffet and Charlie give a full MBA. I don’t know how you can justify paying for a MBA with all the information available for free.
