Munger preaches patience and inverting the problem; Smith and Friedman argue over what markets do to people; Keynes answers with what people do to markets; Morgan financed his way through panics the others only theorized about. Bring a money decision — an investment, a risk, a fear — and hear it stress-tested by five minds who rarely agree and are all worth hearing.
1924–2023 · United States
Berkshire Hathaway's vice-chairman and the great apostle of multidisciplinary thinking: mental models, inversion, and the patience to wait decades for the fat pitch. He read so much his children called him a book with legs.
1723–1790 · Scotland
Moral philosopher first, economist second: The Theory of Moral Sentiments explained sympathy; The Wealth of Nations explained markets, specialization, and why nations prosper. Both books are about the same thing — how self-interested humans cooperate.
1912–2006 · United States
Nobel economist and the century's most effective advocate for free markets — monetarism, the volunteer army, school choice — who could dismantle an opposing argument on television with a smile and a question.
1837–1913 · United States
The banker whose word was collateral: he financed Edison, assembled U.S. Steel, and twice — 1895 and 1907 — personally stopped national financial panics by locking the money men in his library until they agreed.
1883–1946 · Britain
British economist whose General Theory reshaped economics and government policy, arguing that active management of demand could tame depressions. A key architect of the post-war Bretton Woods order and a successful investor, he combined theory with practice.
