More quotes by Charlie Munger
For many of our shareholders, our stock is all they own, and we're acutely aware of that. Our culture [of conservatism] runs pretty deep.
Charlie Munger
We both (Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett) insist on a lot of time being available almost every day to just sit and think. That is very uncommon in American business. We read and think.
Charlie Munger
The stupid and dishonest accountants allowed the genie of totally inappropriate accounting to descend on derivatives books. And once this has happened - people get status, etc. - it's impossible to get it back into the bottle.
Charlie Munger
Being short and seeing a promoter take the stock up is very irritating. It's not worth it to have that much irritation in your life.
Charlie Munger
If it happens every year like clockwork, what's so extraordinary about it?
Charlie Munger
I think the main figure that matters to all of us, including people in the media, is: How does GDP per capita grow? And those figures have been very good. There is a huge flux both up and down, so it isn't like we're all static in status. What's important is that pie grows.

Charlie Munger
It's not supposed to be easy. Anyone who finds it easy is stupid.
Charlie Munger

Charlie Munger
We have a history when things are really horrible of wading in when no one else will.

A Lesson on Elementary, Worldly Wisdom As It Relates To Investment Management & Business
Charlie Munger
The name of the game is continuing to learn. Even if you're very well trained and have some natural aptitude, you still need to keep learning.
Charlie Munger
Move only when you have an advantage. It's very basic. You have to understand the odds and have the discipline to bet only when the odds are in your favor.
Charlie Munger
If you can get good at destroying your own wrong ideas, that is a great gift.
Charlie Munger
Opportunity cost is a huge filter in life. If you've got two suitors who are really eager to have you and one is way the hell better than the other, you do not have to spend much time with the other. And that's the way we filter out buying opportunities.
Charlie Munger
It's dangerous to short stocks.
Charlie Munger
When you borrow a man's car, always return it with a tank of gas.
Charlie Munger
I feel that by getting rich in the way I did, I think my own example has hurt my own country.

Strategic plans cause more dumb decisions than anything else in America.
