Mohnish Pabrai's Lecture to Univ. of Puerto Rico MBA Class - Sept. 26, 2016

Mohnish Pabrai discusses three mental models in the spirit of Charlie Munger’s latticework of mental models in a lecture to the University of Puerto Rico MBA students in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
The three models include:
· The Power of Truth: Commit to candor, however painful or uncomfortable it may be. Being relentlessly truthful (and avoiding “white lies”) will strengthen your relationships with those around you in the long run.
· Compounding is the 8th Wonder of the World: Resist the temptation to pull money out of compounding accounts like 401(k)s; instead, leave them and let them compound over the longest runways possible.
· Dhandho Entrepreneurship: Take advantage of extracurricular time at your full-time job to first test your start-up ideas before quitting your day job to become the next Elon Musk. If you fail, you’ll still have a job. Heads you win, tails you don’t lose much!

I can't believe the empty chairs I saw. IF ONLY I had become interested in investing at their age. Love your talks, Mohnish! Thank you for sharing!

[@it_is_what_it_is2023]

exactly what I thought and some were even leaving. Could listen to him 24/7

[@AjitKumar-xo2lb]

Yess, how can they not listen to him. It's the reason people don't become wealthy.😹

[@jmendoza2007]

To be fair, it was a mistake from the university. If I knew he was in PR I would have attended. The UPR is notorious for not announcing well important guest lectures

[@harbeerchadha]

[@eswaranwaran9011]

Brilliant. Why did they not teach me this at school? I suppose plastics and woodwork for 3 months employs more people than a one hour lecture on compounding!
