Can you recommend other books for children, 7y and older? Do you have any? :)

I went looking at Amazon for related books (related to Sophie's world). Not much :)

Thanks for this. I'll order that book for my son, my niece, etc :)

I was just going to look for principle and value oriented children books. If you have other books to recommend, please do.

I was wondering if you could please expand or write about:

1. Balancing your learning time between: books vs podcasts vs investment letters vs blogs/newsletters/substacks. I know that curating is very important. Let's ignore the selection/curation for now. I was wondering if you have a process or ranking for learning from: books vs podcasts vs investment letters vs blogs/newsletters/substacks? :)

2. Your typical day: wake up time, achieving and maintaining flow, quiet time, (no) kids related stuff, family play, other responsibilities and/or desires.

Thanks

I got to work with Issy Sharp back in the early 80s in Toronto. Amazing opportunity to learn from a true business legend. The book is a great summation of his approach to business and how he got there. Thank you for bringing some light on an under appreciated book.

Im 64. As a member of a military family I grew up wWW2 literature. Over the years I read many veterans saying the coverage was whitewashed. I did not understand their point til I read EB Sledge’s WTOB. I highly “recommend” it.

I’ve actually started listening to all of his pods in chronological order in addition to recent episodes. I’ve never encountered a more enthusiastic podcaster!

I have not. Is this one that Munger recommended recently?
