Praise for Damn Right!

From the author of the bestselling WARREN BUFFETT SPEAKS. . .

"Charlie Munger, whose reputation is deep and wide, based on an extraordinary record of brilliantly successful business strategies, sees things that others don't. There is a method to his mastery and, through this book, we get a chance to learn about this rare individual." -MICHAEL EISNER, Chairman and CEO, The Walt Disney Company

"Janet Lowe uncovers the iconoclastic genius and subtle charm behind Charlie Munger's curmudgeonly facade in this richly woven portrait of our era's heir to Ben Franklin. With a biographer's detachment, an historian's thoroughness, and a financial writer's common sense, Lowe produces a riveting account of the family, personal, and business life of the idiosyncratically complex and endlessly fascinating figure." -LAWRENCE CUNNINGHAM, Cardozo Law School, Author of The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America

"For years, Berkshire Hathaway shareholders and investors worldwide (me included) have struggled to learn more about Warren Buffett's cerebral sidekick. Now we can rest and enjoy reading Janet Lowe's book about this rare intellectual jewel called Charlie Munger." -ROBERT G. HAGSTROM, Author of The Warren Buffett Way

"Charlie has lived by the creed that one should live a life that doesn't need explaining. But his life should be explained. In a city where heroism is too often confused with celebrity, Charlie is a true hero and mentor. He lives the life lessons that he has studiously extracted from other true heroes and mentors, from Ben Franklin to Ben Graham. This book illuminates those life lessons." -RONALD L. OLSON, Munger, Tolles & Olson llp

"Janet Lowe's unprecedented access to Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett has resulted in a first-class book that investors, academics, and CEOs will find entertaining and highly useful."-TIMOTHY P. VICK, Money Manager and Author of How to Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffett

读后感

charle mugger是美国投资界巴菲特背后的神秘人物，一生显然有值得挖掘的点滴。不过，这位大佬显然是希望保留私人生活的完整性 这部书写得真烂，什么都没写，花一天勉强读完，就像是读了本年鉴。 以后这个女人写的书坚决不要读。 再，顶价太贵了。 再再，读完这个再读中信的滚雪...  

查理·芒格，何许人也？ 他是站在巴菲特身后的亿万富翁，被誉为“真正的英雄”，是沃伦·巴菲特的合伙人。或许是巴菲特的光环太强，掩盖了他这位“黄金搭档”的光芒。其实不然，查理·芒格本人行事低调，自己不愿暴露在镁光灯下，据说曾竭力控制自己的财富增长，以避免成...  

无论如何，沃伦巴菲特和查理芒格在1959年的那次相遇，都称得上是一次伟大的相遇。 如果不是这次相遇，查理可能还是芒格-托尔斯-希尔斯-伍德律师事务所的一名合伙人，同时兼职做一些房地产的开发。要知道那个年代的律师远不如现在这样吃香，只有加上房地产的收入，芒格才可以从...

也许原作者将查理芒格的传奇一生讲述的很生动，但经过了翻译的折扣，只能传达给读者40%；亦或是这本身就不算是一本顶级的传记。然而这并不妨碍对本书的推荐，这个名字就是最坚实的理由。 正文也许写的波澜不惊，然而通读下来，再结合附录中的大事记作为线索，仍然可以领会到作...  

他们就像是从事某种传统工艺的手艺人，身怀着世人渴望的独门技艺，不常出手，一旦出手，世人侧目，侧就侧在打造之产品当时看来往往丑陋不堪，尔等百思不得其解，琢磨着这次伯克希尔作坊绝对倒摊儿，可未等思闭，该产品实用性、艺术性、工艺性、独一性等等价值逐一显现，世人惊...
