Description
What I Learned about Investing from Darwin by Pulak Prasad offers a fresh perspective on investing, drawing on the principles of evolutionary biology to inform a patient long-term approach.
Prasad explores how key concepts from the natural world, such as the survival strategies of bumblebees and the traits of successful businesses, can be applied to investing. He outlines three core principles: avoid big risks, buy high-quality at a fair price, and don't be lazy - be very lazy.
By combining practical insight with engaging storytelling, Prasad makes a compelling case for a strategy that rules out many investment opportunities and advocates for permanently owning high-quality businesses.
