Hey 👋 – Thomas here.
Good day to my fellow compounders!
In 3-Bullet Sunday, I share with you the three most interesting piece of article, video or podcast I came across for the week on investing and growth philosophies.
Enjoy!
I. Wealth vs. Getting Wealthier by Morgan Housel
“Money buys happiness in the same way drugs bring pleasure: Incredible if done right, dangerous if used to mask a weakness, and disastrous when no amount is ever enough.”

II. What Basketball Taught Me About Life by Thomas Chua
Basketball used to take up a huge part of my life.
Similar to investing, the pursuit of the craft is what excites me.
There were many important lessons basketball taught me—deliberate vs mindless practice, overcoming self-doubts and the essence of a great team culture.

III. [Members] The Mighty Google Search Engine
Google is a compounder I have owned for the longest time.
And there’s a good reason for it—it has a big ass moat.
Imagine if Google went down today, the disruption to our lives might be greater than the supply chain disruption we have experienced during lockdowns.
Our life is so entrenched with Google search, Google Maps, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Android, YouTube and so much more.
I have put out a post to share in details why it would require herculean efforts to challenge Google for members only.

That’s all for this Sunday.
