Charlie Munger & Warren Buffett

Learning from the Best

The best way to learn is by standing on the shoulders of giants. In the world of investing, few stand taller than Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. Over more than 50 years, Buffett has grown Berkshire Hathaway’s market value at an average annual rate of 20.1%—a truly remarkable feat.

To put that into perspective, a $1,000 investment in Berkshire in 1965 would be worth over $39 million today. Their success wasn’t just luck. Many other value investors—often called the “Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville”—have used similar principles to achieve outstanding long-term returns.

This blog is my space to share my journey as a value investor, applying the time-tested investment philosophy of these two legendary figures.

I will also be sharing insights into my retirement portfolio, the SRS Fund, which focuses on investments in the Singapore stock market. Each month, I’ll provide updates on the fund’s performance and any trades made along the way.

Beyond that, I’ll occasionally write about investment principles, lessons from great investors, and some fun facts about investing in general.

One important note: this blog is not about stock tips, market timing, or financial advice. Everything shared here is purely for educational purposes.

What I do hope is that my experiences and insights will help you refine your own investment approach, giving you practical ideas to apply on your journey.

Welcome, and happy investing!
