University of Berkshire Hathaway: 30 Years of Lessons Learned from Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger at the Annual Shareholders Meeting

Summary

Daniel Pecaut and Corey Wrenn collect lessons from thirty years of Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholder meetings. The book follows the meetings year by year, bringing together Buffett’s and Munger’s remarks about investment and business.

It gives readers a way to compare questions and responses across changing conditions. The account is a retelling by the authors, rather than a claim to be a complete verbatim transcript. It adds a meeting-based view to the prepared writing in shareholder letters.

Why read it Our view

Read it to compare how experienced business leaders respond to questions over many years. Look for both lasting principles and changes in how a principle is applied. The meeting format can expose choices and doubts that a polished account gives less space to; keep the authors’ role in selecting and retelling the material in mind.
