I highly recommend listening to the Acquired interview. At age 99 he was still remarkably sharp and up-to-date.

  My favorite tweet about his death: "TRUE G IS IF YOU DIE AT AGE 99 AND THEY STILL WAIT UNTIL AFTER THE CLOSE FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT." [1] https://x.com/INVESTMENTSHULK/status/1729608350751449218?s=20 https://x.com/INVESTMENTSHULK/status/1729608350751449218?s=2...

  I just listened to the Acquired interview walking through the redwoods on Sunday. I am gutted because he talked about his 100th birthday celebration at the California club and joked how it was a full party with no invitations left. It broke my heart that he isn't around to celebrate and enjoy that experience.

  I actually found that interview to be quite hard to listen to. Charlie often interrupted the question, answered one that could have been asked, and then later on the interviewer (Ben or David) came around to actually finishing the question, and it turned out not to be the one that Charlie prematurely answered. He also gave several answers that I didn't think were really insightful, of course YMMV. I found this interview to be one of the least interesting to be ever published by Acquired.

This is one of his greatest. I wrote a nice summary of Poor Charlie’s Almanack back in 2021 which I’ve occasionally kept coming back to. I think today I‘ll revisit it with a sense of emptiness inside me. I’m sharing it here for others to enjoy: https://www.lostbookofsales.com/notes/poor-charlies-almanack-the-wit-and-wisdom-of-charles-t-munger https://www.lostbookofsales.com/notes/poor-charlies-almanack...

  Nice work but the scrolling in mobile terrible, making it hard to read.

  Great summary. One I'll be revisiting myself every now and then.

  There's also some speeches of his that are really fascinating too.
