This One Rule Decides Who Stays Rich — Charlie Munger Explains

Описание: #CharlieMunger #NeverLoseMoney #InvestingWisdom

People want the secret to getting rich. There isn't one. But there is a secret to staying rich. Don't lose your damn money. Sounds obvious, right? Yet 99 percent of investors spend their entire lives violating this rule. They're so busy trying to hit home runs they never notice they're bleeding out from a thousand small cuts. I'm not going to tell you how to double your money in six months. I'm going to tell you how to make sure you still have money in six years because that's the actual game.

Warren and I didn't get wealthy by being geniuses. We got wealthy by not being idiots for a very long time. That's the whole secret. Don't be an idiot. Don't do stupid things with your money. Don't chase what you don't understand. Don't borrow money to gamble. Don't panic when things get scary. Just don't be stupid for 50 years. But people can't do it. They get bored. They get greedy. They get scared. And all three of those emotions cost money. Making money and keeping money are completely different skills. Making money is about opportunity. Keeping money is about character. You can get lucky and make money. You can't get lucky and keep it. Keeping it requires discipline, patience, and the ability to sit on your hands when every instinct is screaming at you to do something.

Here's what you'll learn in this video: why avoiding losers matters more than picking winners, the brutal asymmetry nobody talks about where one big mistake can erase 20 years of smart decisions, what losing money really costs you and why it's not just dollars but years of your life you can never get back, why most people build financial houses of cards that collapse with one strong wind, the four criteria I look for in every business before investing, why complexity is the enemy of good investing and simple businesses beat complicated ones, and why the smartest investors spend most of their time doing nothing. Getting rich is boring. It's sitting on your ass doing nothing for years while everyone else is having adventures. It's saying no to almost everything. It's being patient when patience feels like punishment. But boring gets you independence, security, and the ability to sleep at night.
