The practical wisdom of Poor Charlie's Almanack, this ode to curiosity, generosity, and virtue will similarly compound at successive generations of entrepreneurial readers extend his lessons to their own circumstances.

Education is the process whereby the ability to lead a good life is acquired.

Trust is one of the greatest economic forces on earth.

Charlie is content to trust his own judgment when it runs counter to the wisdom of the herd.

Aim for durability. Durability has always been a first rate virtue in Charlie’s eyes.

Charlie only focuses on great businesses and great businesses have moats.

You can flourish in a niche: People who specialize in the business world —and get very good because they specialize— frequently find good economics that they wouldn't get any other way.

Being so well known has advantages of scale. This is what you might call an informational advantage. It increases social proof.

Occasionally scaling down and intensifying gives you a big advantage. (You can find great profit margins this way)

Scale and fanaticism combined is very powerful. (Think Sam Walton)

I also believed then, as I do now after more than fifty years as a money manager, that the surest way to get rich is to play only those games or make those investments where I have an edge.

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

Optimism is a moral duty. — Edwin Land

You want to maximize the playing time of your top players.

The game of competitive life often requires maximizing the experience of the people who have the most aptitude and the most determination as learning machines.

The most important rule in management is get the incentives right.

Never, ever think about something else when you should be thinking about the power of incentives.
