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. Reality Catches Up by Morgan Housel

Success that is undeserved could quickly become a liability.

Be it from a company’s valuation, a worker’s salary or family lifestyle.

II. All the Personal-Finance Books Are Wrong

It’s good to work hard to earn and save to be financially responsible.

But like anything else in life, any idea taken to the extreme is unhealthy.

And many personal finance books out there preaches an extreme ideology—delaying gratification and optimizing for wealth at the cost of many other things in life.

“But those who spend a lifetime delaying gratification may one day find themselves rich in savings but poor in memories, having sacrificed too much joy at the altar of compounding interest.”

Here’s some food for thought:

I know some of you will ask for recommendations on personal finance books…

I find Sethi Ramit’s book to be very helpful if you are looking for one.

III. Was I Afraid When I left My Job?

I have always loved investing and writing.

But before I quit my 9-5 to do it full-time…

I laid down some rules and made sure that there’s demand for what I’m trying to do.

That’s all I have for you today.

If you are enjoying this post, the best compliment you could pay me would be to share it with one person who you think would benefit from it.

See you again soon.

Cheers,

Thomas
