This is something that is seen on many great investors. They have insights into their own psyche and they have tricks that force (or rather "encourage") them to stay rational when emotions would direct their actions towards something less than optimal. Many of the rules of investing he had there were tricks like that. Honesty to oneself is an important attribute to them and they are smart enough to know that honesty to others does not really cost anything to them either - not that many of them would care even if it did cost, dishonesty is just not a good way to live your life. I find these presentations to be very interesting and rewarding from this perspective towards one's own mental biases.
I am amazed that this talk isn't popular. But at the same time I feel lucky that I am one of the few lucky people to watch it. . Amazing talk. I love you man!
I can really see myself reflected in this talk. I’m still 20 and very tempted to go down the “get money and hustle route” but sometimes I take a step back and see exactly what he drew out in this talk.
The honesty you had and telling us the true feelings you had is completely awesome and along with that you gave us what to do with envy. Thank you very much
An inspiring talk that left me refreshed and more at peace. I have envy I need to deal with, and I also hold Warren Buffett and Tony Robbins as role models. I'm happy to add Guy to the list as well. Thank you for some good habits, especially the thank you note.
I want to become a Portfolio Manager some day and my faith in the industry has just been restored. Truly wonderful talk too. If I knew his address, I would have definitely sent a 'thank you' note!
Hi Guy! I just read your book and it really impress me on the leasons you share. I wish ever reach half of what you learnt and share in it. So thankful to you for sharing your wisdom.
Thank you, especially what u said to reduce envy resonated with me. I used to be envious of few people. But, it always fascinated me that I am always in a calm place whenever im with my current boyfriend, I wouldnt change the time I spend with him for anything.
It is funny how he talks about Amazon like it is a missed investment but if he had just bought it at the time it would have been an easy ten bagger. I guess no one is perfect after all.
thing is at the time it was still a miss , so regardless of the current opportunity the fact that he missed it when it was cheaper is a hugh miss because without a doubt returns increase at a decreasing rate
i can not predict the market in the short run about the market. if see something i like i invest and if i dont see somthing which i like i build the cash.
What have in unsophisticated but it probably works. If you applied the same method but you look for value meaning what is going to offer you the best buying price you would have far greater investment outcome.
you cant know about a business 100%. sso you can say it is probably under valued at $50 or it is probably over valued at $200. and in the middle of the range i am dealing with uncertainty. so i can increase my probability of my success.
Great investor but his mind is still full of pseudoscience bullshit. I learned a lot from his book but hated the parts where he glorifies the scammer "Tony Robbins" and when he reveals his belief in the laws of attraction "The secret".
lol Corega111 i loved this comment. yes - there is still a lot of bullshit in my mind - I'm a work in progress - but delighted that you learned from the book all the same.
This pseudocience is still helping thousand of people to advance and especially get rid of toxic habits... but it's also requires a good dose of humulity.
I find this guy terrible!! Stays 18 months at a chop shop then says "America and global capitalism has to answer this..." Nope. You have to answer that. Then when he talks like he has seen the light and knows everything. I think he comes across as humble but in reality is pretty narcisstic.
There is no such thing as value investing. There is opportunity investing. Warren talks about buying companies that are excellent, have smart and moral management, have a competitive advantage, and are selling for a very good price. WHY would ANYBODY sell such a company unless they have some problems (divorce, too many greedy people in family, etc...) this is not Value investing, this is opportunity investing. I do the same, but I have info from banks which companies have problems with cashflow, so I come in and make offers. I buy companies for 4-5 ebitda cash and debt free. Once I make them free of all debts, I sell them 8-9 ebitda. Idiots can do this, you just need money, and I am lucky my family has given me 100m euro to invest of their money. They think I am smart, but I am really not, I am just a used car sales man in a fucking Kiton suit. there you go, i said it.
+49fiori Hey man, I am very interested in putting your capital to work if you want that. I have a business, economics, investments and software engineering background and currently own a game development business aldo.leka@live.com
5:10 This should have been where you stop watching. He's an unethical man. Him and Pabrai are horrible "investors". I have yet to see either one of them come up with a good, and original investment idea.
Their whole point is they are using ideas of value investing set down decades ago. They come right out and say that basically every time they are interviewed or give a talk.

I'm more impressed with his honesty and humility than anything having to do with money. Thanks for sharing your journey.
yo, Brother Augustine, how do you do, love your channel
Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ Λόγος 🙏🏻
Read his book. It's even more humble and wholesome.

An inspirational book Guy, that reminds people what matters in life. Well done.
The way he writes about Buffett is beautiful
The honesty you had and telling us the true feelings you had is completely awesome and along with that you gave us what to do with envy. Thank you very much
Guy, thank you for writing this book. It is fantastic!
The talk is more valauble to life than to invstements.. I liked it
whenever i looked for an answer outside of my self i dont get a good answer. the minute i look for an answer inside myself the world change.
The envy answer was brilliant and so simple. Just envy yourself and no one else. That's the only healthy envy
try not to trade when the market is open . decide at night what you gonna do then put the order . decide in the quite moments.
Listening to the same video second time and it is just as much enjoyable as it was first time.

i can not predict the market in the short run about the market. if see something i like i invest and if i dont see somthing which i like i build the cash.
What have in unsophisticated but it probably works.
If you applied the same method but you look for value meaning what is going to offer you the best buying price you would have far greater investment outcome.
Great Talk! Its totally interesting to see someone totally honest about their shortcomings. We all have them.
buying the future is not a good things to do. it does not often turn on that way.
i went to oxford but my life was wrong till i followed warren buffet 24 mins in
Profound.Greetings from Kerala.💕💕👌👌👌

Great introductions
Fabulous book.
Great talk.. great book.
Awesome... markets arent that efficient after all.
Weird that he went from Harvard and Oxford unis to work at a spivvy little fourth-tier brokerage house. Why not a proper firm?
This guy is really cool and funny
Who’s Guy Spier?
you cant know about a business 100%. sso you can say it is probably under valued at $50 or it is probably over valued at $200. and in the middle of the range i am dealing with uncertainty. so i can increase my probability of my success.
41:20 "All emotions are a call to action."
If this is a sales call, I'm really sorry, but I will not be able to buy your product; because you're selling it to me. HAHAHA
I think him is probably a neo libro
No nobody, but, me can keep me safe, I'm on my way.
54:41 He meant "Alex Bossert"
sell me the information and i evaluate and make a decision. i dont buy on sale speech.
What accent is this?
I’ll chalk this one up to WHITE NOISE.
Great investor but his mind is still full of pseudoscience bullshit. I learned a lot from his book but hated the parts where he glorifies the scammer "Tony Robbins" and when he reveals his belief in the laws of attraction "The secret".
