I mean, half of Australia views Don Bradman as a hero and all he really did was play cricket very well.
Same with certain actors (Alan Rickman springs to mind), chess legends like Gary Kasparov, albeit on a smaller scale.
I think I understand what you're getting at - Charlie Munger didn't change the world the way, say, Jonas Salk did - but that doesn't mean that people aren't going to idolize him. He was at the top of his game, and incredibly bright and witty.
- jesterson 3y agoThank you for your response. It’s understandable some people will idolise him - pretty much like they can do same for anyone else, no matter how big or small, benevolent or malevolent his/her impact is. Was just wondering if there is objectively something justifying the definition or it’s deeply subjective. Guess I grasped the answer by now
