Value investing is not just a system for success in the market. It is also an intellectual toolkit for achieving a deeper understanding of the world. In The Joys of Compounding, the value investor Gautam Baid builds a holistic approach to value investing and philosophy from his wide-ranging reading, combining practical approaches, self-cultivation, and business wisdom.
Distilling investment and life lessons into a comprehensive guide, Baid integrates the strategies and wisdom of preeminent figures whose teachings have stood the test of time. Drawing on the work of investing greats like Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Ben Graham, as well as philosophers and scholars, he artfully interweaves the lessons learned from his many teachers. Baid demonstrates their practical applications in the areas of business, investing, and decision making and also shows that these ideas can be applied to ones own life with just as much reward.
A celebration of the value investing discipline, this book also recounts Baids personal experiences, testifying to his belief that the best investment you can make is an investment in yourself. The Joys of Compounding offers curated reflections on life and learning for all investors, investment enthusiasts, and readers seeking a dose of practical wisdom.
This revised and updated edition highlights Baids distinctive voice.

In loving memory of my grandfather, Deepchand Nahata (19262007)

The best thing a human being can do is to help another human being know more.

Charlie Munger

The true value investor, who deserves my utmost respect, is somebody who devotes their life to their passion for reading. Nobody can spend their life studying for 50 yearswhich is what we doif they dont enjoy it.

Francisco Garca Params

Its startling how much life wisdom can be gleaned from the maxims and approaches of value investors.

Rolf Dobelli

The wisdom of the wise, and the experience of ages, may be preserved by quotations.

CONTENTS

A little more than twenty years ago, I discovered Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, Ben Graham and the art of Intelligent Investing. Even before attending my first Berkshire Hathaway meeting, I had become a converted disciplesuch that, when I first arrived at Berkshire, I felt like I had found my tribe. At the time, we were one or two thousand people in Omaha. But the tribe was growing. Today, tens of thousands attend the Berkshire meeting, and many more watch online.

And just as the size of the tribe has not been static, neither has its world view or self-understanding. Back in those early days, I saw value investing as merely a way to invest well, get rich, and live The Good Life. But as the years went on, I came to realize that there was far more to it than this. I began to see it as a system for living the best possible life. Thus, the Value Investors view of life encompasses far more than concepts like Mr. Market, and Margin of Safety. It extends to questions like, What is Worldly Wisdom and How does one Acquire it?, How does one build a Latticework of Mental Models, What role can and should Stoicism play in life and investing?, and What can the Mahabarata, the Gita and other great works of Eastern Wisdom teach us about investing and life?

Gautam Baids book is another step in the Value Investing tribes unfolding knowledge about the world we inhabit. In it, you will learn his lessons from the greatsas updated by more recent students. So in addition to Buffett, Munger, and Graham, you will read about what Baid has learned from people like Mohnish Pabrai, Tom Russo, Mike Mauboussin, Peter Bevelin, Saurabh Madaan, Marcelo Lima, Paul Lountzis, and others. You will also benefit from Baids broad reading across many disciplines as he distils his understanding of works by a broad range of authors, including Herbert Simon, Shane Parrish, Nassim Taleb, Rolf Dobelli, Richard Zeckhauser, and others.

And, just as all true value investors are travelers on a path, this book itself has come a long way since it crossed my desk not so long ago. This Columbia Business School Publishing edition benefits from improved organization around topics and a clearer focus on Gautams voice and insights. It offers fresh opportunity to learn and relearn those key lessons that will make us better investors and better human beings.

I constantly see people rise in life who are not the smartest, sometimes not even the most diligent, but they are learning machines. They go to bed every night a little wiser than they were when they got up and boy does that help, particularly when you have a long run ahead of you.

Charlie Munger

I n his 2007 University of Southern California School of Law commencement speech, Charlie Munger said that lifelong learning is paramount to long-term success. Without it, we wont succeed, because we wont get far based on what we already know.

If you take Berkshire Hathaway, which is certainly one of the best-regarded corporations in the world and may have the best long-term investment record in the

Most people go through life not really getting any smarter. But you can acquire wisdom if you truly want to obtain it. In fact, a simple formula, if followed, is almost certain to make you smarter over time. Its simple but not easy.

It involves a lot of hard work, patience, discipline, and focus.

Read. A lot.

This is how Warren Buffett, one of the most successful people in the business world, describes his typical day: I just sit in my office and read all day.
