5 books written by legendary investors 📚
If you want to understand how legends think, read what they actually wrote. These books aren’t about motivation. They’re frameworks that shaped how capital moves and how risk is managed 👇
🔖 Principles by Ray Dalio — A mix of life and investing philosophy from the founder of Bridgewater. Clear rules for decision-making, understanding cycles, and staying rational under pressure.
🔖One Up on Wall Street by Peter Lynch — How the manager of the best-performing mutual fund in history found winning stocks by observing real-life trends early — and why simplicity often beats overthinking.
🔖 Margin of Safety by Seth Klarman — A rare and highly respected book on value investing and risk management. Out of print and cult-level among professional investors — for good reason.
🔖 Poor Charlie’s Almanack by Charles Munger — A collection of talks and wisdom from Warren Buffett’s longtime partner. Less about specific trades, more about mental models, judgment, and avoiding stupidity.
🔖 A Man for All Markets by Edward Thorp — The memoir of the mathematician who beat blackjack and then built one of the first market-neutral hedge funds. Shows how probability, edge, and discipline apply across domains.
