About this listen
Big Mistakes: The Best Investors and Their Worst Investments explores the ways in which the biggest names have failed and reveals the lessons learned that shaped more successful strategies going forward.
Investing can be a roller-coaster of highs and lows, and the investors detailed here reveal just how low it can go; stories from Warren Buffet, Bill Ackman, Chris Sacca, Jack Bogle, Mark Twain, John Maynard Keynes, and many more illustrate the simple but overlooked concept that investing is really hard, whether you're managing a few thousand dollars or a few billion. Failures and losses are part of the game. Much more than just anecdotal diversion, these stories set the basis for the book's critical focus: learning from mistakes. These investors all recovered from their missteps and moved forward armed with a wealth of knowledge than can only come from experience. Lessons learned through failure carry a weight that no textbook can convey and in the case of these legendary investors, informed a set of skills and strategy that propelled them to the top.
Research-heavy and grounded in realism, this book is a must-listen for any investor looking to maximize their chances of success.

Honest and not much spoken of POV
The one book that talks about the mistakes of your heroes and makes you realise, well they messed up bigger than I did and still did okay, I just need to stay at it.

Must listen to last chapter first
I wouldn’t have believed the stories if it hadn’t been brought out in a book! It’s sort of depressing to hear the best investors averaging 10-12% over the years. I’m a novice investor and I had hoped to make a better buck. Now I will be careful. Although I will never see the numbers mentioned in this book, this narration will help me become more careful in the years to come.
