In Warren Buffett: Inside the Ultimate Money Mind, Hagstrom breaks new ground with a deep analysis of Buffett's essential wisdom, an intricate mosaic of wide-ranging ideas and insights that Buffett calls a Money Mind.

What exactly is a Money Mind? At one level, it's a way of thinking about major financial issues such as capital allocation. At another level, it summarizes an overall mindset for successfully investing in today's fast-paced stock market, a mindset that depends on a commitment to learning, adapting, and facing down irrelevant noise.

This is not a method book. It is a thinking book.

Warren Buffett: Inside the Ultimate Money Mind explains the philosophies of self-reliance, stoicism, rationalism, and pragmatism and their contributions to making intelligent investment decisions. It also outlines the evolution of value investing, discusses how to develop a business-driven investing mindset, and describes the defining traits of successful active management. Lastly, it examines the surprising aspects of a Money Mind - sportsman, teacher, and artist.

In short, Warren Buffett: Inside the Ultimate Money Mind helps readers understand the building blocks that go into making a Money Mind so they can begin to incorporate its principles in the service to a life of value.

From the Inside Flap

In Warren Buffett: Inside the Ultimate Money Mind, bestselling author Robert Hagstrom breaks new ground with a deep analysis of Buffett's essential wisdom, an intricate mosaic of wide-ranging ideas.

Widely known for his insightful analyses of Buffett's investment methods, Hagstrom now takes on a much broader question: What shaped those methods? With a significant study of the multiple influences on Buffett's thinking, Hagstrom parses a complex, nuanced worldview that is reflected in, but much greater than, the practice of investing. Buffett himself gave this worldview a memorable name: a Money Mind.

What exactly is a Money Mind? At one level, it's a way of thinking about major financial issues such as capital allocation. At another level, it summarizes an overall mindset for successfully investing in today's fast-paced stock market, a mindset that depends on commitment to learning, adapting, and facing down irrelevant noise. At a still deeper level, the profound philosophical and ethical construct at its core tells us a great deal about the person we call a Money Mind, a person who is quite likely to be successful in many aspects of life--including investing.

Warren Buffett: Inside the Ultimate Money Mind explains the philosophies of self-reliance, stoicism, rationalism, and pragmatism and their contributions to making intelligent investment decisions.

4.0 out of 5 stars Insightful. Philosophical. Many good stuff not found in other books labeled Buffett
Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2022
My review title says it all. Well written and full of wisdom. Recommended!

p.s. Below please find some favorite passages of mine fyi.
The first thing to start a business of your own is to learn all you can from both sides of the question: how to succeed and how not to fail. Pg4
Investing is a thinking game. Another name for that is your worldview. Pg17
From my perspective, Charlie’s most important architectural feat was the design of today’s Berkshire. The blueprint he gave me was simple. Forget about buying fair businesses at wonderful prices; instead buy wonderful businesses at fair prices. Pg42
Investment is most intelligent when it is most businesslike. – Ben Graham
Risk comes from not knowing what you are doing. – Buffett
The whole function of philosophy is to produce habits of action. – William James
At the heart of value investing stand two golden rules. 1# Don’t lose. 2# Don’t forget rule number one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Insights
Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2023
I've read several Buffett books over the years, including "The Snowball," and this is my new favorite. What sealed my enjoyment is that, in revealing the origin & influences of Buffett's philosophy, Hagstrom discusses my two favorite philosophers—Ralph Waldo Emerson and Marcus Aurelius. It makes perfect sense that these two indirectly influenced Buffett through his father (who read Emerson) and Benjamin Graham (who read Marcus).

Excellent book. I initially bought the book to learn more about how Warren Buffett’s investment approach evolved over time. But the part that intrigued me most was about Bill Miller and his way of approaching valuation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb - I have pencilled annotations on nearly a third of the pages

A superb book. Like having a very thoughtful conversation with WB - which it is unlikely I would ever have (albeit we share a semicolon!). You are getting here a deep insight into a way of thinking about things financial which I think can only develop and mature your ideas on successful investing. Strangely this is almost independent of WB's astonishing successes. WB's success has necessarily meant that many others have tried to model his strategies, which has likely increased the prices of the target companies. But as they say "The early birds to the buffet get the steak and lobster, the late ones get the bread crumbs"! However I think if you either get up early or choose a different buffet you can only find this book superbly interesting. Congratulations to the author Robert Hagstrom who deserves his own praise - a sort of Boswell to Dr Johnson!
