Thanks Derek.

Here's more information about Charlie Munger:

He lost his three year old son to cancer.

He has a glass eye due to a botched surgery.

He didn't start accumulating wealth until his late thirties.

He owns a huge catamaran boat: http://sbsail.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/011-IMG_0019.jp...

Also, Charlie frequently mentions inversion as one of the most powerful mental models.

Another powerful model says the models themselves can combine to have a multiplicative, "lollapalooza" effects.

In that, he stresses being multidisciplinary. To the man with a hammer, everything's a nail.

Combining ideas from philosophy, psychology, economics, finance, and even chaos theory--rationality is Charlie's highest virtue.

Here's a list of books Charlie recommends you read to gain insight into the Munger System.

Poor Charlie's Almanac is fantastic. There's a story about Coca-Cola being a 2 trillion dollar company one day that will raise your eyebrows and give you insight into how they think about investments.

If you're like me and you can't get enough, kill a few hours with these:

Interesting. I've read quite a few of Buffett's year-end reports, I wonder how much of these are written by Munger? Their writing style seems to overlap a little.

Charlie influences Warren's style for sure. He edits the rough drafts and gives feedback to Warren.

And the amusing thing is during the meetings, while Warren is going to town on the podium, he just sits back and eats candy with this wry smile on his face...

"Nothing to add..."
