This is a long discussion between myself and Nelson – the Canadian Dividend Investor – about The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life by Alice Schroeder. There are really two definitive books about Warren Buffett – this one and Buffett: The Making of An American Capitalist by Roger Lowenstein. Lowenstein’s book is excellent, but he wrote it in 1995 without the cooperation of Warren Buffett. The book was also written before Warren Buffett was extremely famous.The Snowball, in contrast, was written with the cooperation of Warren Buffett. Alice Schroeder covered Berkshire for Morgan Stanley and knew Warren Buffett personally. With his blessing, she began the project in 2003 and was given unprecedented access to Warren’s files, spent a lot of time talking with him directly, and interviewed all of his close associates.The book is massive – 852 pages – and is a deep study on Warren Buffett’s life.The book is controversial and we discuss that in this podcast. Warren Buffett hasn’t publicly criticized it or disavowed it, but Alice Schroeder has commented that the portrayal was difficult for him at times. He doesn’t endorse the book, it’s not sold at the Berkshire meetings, and he appears to have distanced himself from Alice.I love the book and think it’s filled with life & business lessons. I hope you enjoy our conversation about it.Links.* The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life: https://www.amazon.com/Snowball-Warren-Buffett-Business-Life-ebook/dp/B009MYD9F8DisclaimerNothing on this podcast is investment advice.The information in this podcast is for information and discussion purposes only.

In 2008, for instance, the stock market declined by 37% and this portfolio was down only 2%. During the COVID crash, this portfolio was down 2% while the stock market was down by 20%.Links* The Permanent Portfolio: Harry Browne's Long-Term Investment Strategy. https://www.amazon.com/Permanent-Portfolio-Long-Term-Investment-Strategy-ebook/dp/B0097VBOHG* Analysis of the Permanent Portfolio from Portfolio Charts: https://portfoliocharts.com/portfolios/permanent-portfolio/* Craig’s Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/CraigHRowlandDisclaimerNothing on this podcast is investment advice.The information in this podcast is for information and discussion purposes only.

Anita Dhake is a blogger at thepowerofthrift.com. She is also the author of a book, Operation Enough, about her approach to financial independence. Anita retired at the age of 33. She graduated with a law degree in 2009 from the University of Chicago. She had a starting salary of $160,000. Instead of using her law income to live an expensive lifestyle, she used it to achieve financial independence at a remarkably early age.She has a unique philosophy towards money that I think is best summed up by her quote: “The most valuable thing money can buy is freedom from worrying about money.”Links* The Power of Thrift: https://thepowerofthrift.com/* Operation Enough: https://www.amazon.com/Operation-Enough-Retire-Remarkably-Early-ebook/dp/B075RS2R4ZDisclaimerNothing on this podcast is investment advice.The information in this podcast is for information and discussion purposes only.

This is a discussion about the book, Routines and Orgies: The Life of Peter Cundill, Financial Genius, Philosopher, and Philanthropist by Christopher Risso-Gill. I discussed the book with Nelson, also known as The Canadian Dividend Investor. Nelson is a returning guest to the podcast and I thought he would be an ideal person to discuss this book with.Peter Cundill was a value investor who achieved a 15% rate of return from 1974 to 2010. This was a period of time when the US stock market returned 9.6% and international stocks returned 7.7%.Cundill employed a deep value style of investing and emphasized low price-to-book stocks and net-net’s. He even had NET-NET on his license plate.He started his fund after reading about Warren Buffett and Benjamin Graham in the book Supermoney on a flight in 1974.He is an extremely unique character who lived life to the fullest. He was a world traveler who made it a point every year to visit the country with the worst-performing stock market so he could analyze it for opportunities. He was deeply devoted to physical fitness and routinely ran marathons well into his 50s. His philosophical thoughts about life in his journals are extremely thought provoking. He passed away in 2011 at the age of 72 due to a neurological disease called Fragile X.Links* The book, Routines and Orgies: https://www.amazon.com/Routines-Orgies-Financial-Philosopher-Philanthropist-ebook/dp/B00QB6Y080* A shorter book about Cundill, There’s Always Something to Do, which focuses more on his investment career: https://www.amazon.com/Theres-Always-Something-Christopher-Risso-Gill-ebook/dp/B00CS5BR9S/* Nelson’s substack: * The first episode with Nelson where we discussed his approach to investing: DisclaimerNothing on this substack is investment advice.The information in this article is for information and discussion purposes only.

Jared Dillian served in the Coast Guard, worked as a trader at Lehman Brothers, and writes the Daily Dirtnap newsletter. He’s also a DJ and a prolific author. His published books include Street Freak, an account of his time at Lehman Brothers and a novel called All the Evil of This World. He also wrote a collection of essays, Those Bastards (in reference to a quote from Dick Fuld, CEO of Lehman) which I highly recommend. I just finished it and it made me think deeply about a variety of different topics and frequently made me laugh and provided an enlightening perspective.
