I've read it a few times. I would recommend reading:

Talk One: Harvard School Commencement Speech (aka Prescription for Guaranteed Misery in life)

Talk Eleven: The Psychology of Human Misjudgement which is the most important talk in the book. Interestingly enough it doesn't have any illustrations or sidebar notes like the other talks.

Then go from there.

So basically a Norm Macdonald perfect joke?

It’s reflexive and a tautology - Munger’s best point is actually the point of the existence of the book it is contained within.

Turtles all the way down.

Thanks for the recommendations! Will have a look
