Episode 20 - The Sloth Investor Hall of Fame: Morgan Housel
Regular listeners of the Sloth Investor podcast will know that Mr. Sloth's investment philosophy is a compound creation of everything that he's read, listened to, viewed, discussed, and experienced about investing. In particular, though, there are several key individuals that have played a pivotal role in the formation of my 5 bedrock principles. For example, Warren Buffett and the late Jack Bogle, Mr. Sloth's first two inductees into the Sloth Investor Hall of Fame, are indicative of the calibre of individuals deemed worthy of merit in this hallowed institution. The third inductee, though much younger, is also worthy of inclusion. This inductee is Morgan Housel. The reason? Well, quite simply, the quality and incisiveness of Housel's writing place him on the Mount Rushmore of contemporary investment writers. Perhaps best known as the author of 'The Psychology of Money' (in podcast 16 we focused upon this book) Housel's writing is razor-sharp, easily accessible, and multi-disciplinary in nature. During this episode, we'll explore a selection of Housel's writing during his time at the Motley Fool, and, more recently, at the Collaborative Fund. As promised during our discussion, here's a link to all of Housel's writing during his time at the Motley Fool. https://www.fool.com/author/1611/ Jay (my co-host) and I hope you enjoy this podcast episode.
