Level 8 · 8 mo agoSo we praise a 200 billion loss as wisdom? Munger didn't use mental models.. he exploited a broken system. Regular people get fired for that incompetence.

Level 6 · 8 mo agoThat $200 billion mistake highlights how sunk cost traps even the best. Sticking with a dying textile mill just because of the price was a massive error. Psychology definitely matters more than IQ.

Level 5 · 8 mo agoMan Buffett holding that textile mill for 20 years is the ultimate bag holding. 200 billion is a steep tuition fee just to learn value investing. Lollapalooza effect sounds like he is headlining a festival
