Mr. Spier, thank you so much for this gem of wisdom and culture.
Oh, this is so enlightening. I long to pick up writing again (non-fiction) but currently life gets in the way. I am with Morgan Housel, I am the selfish writer, as far as the subject is concerned. For my worst piece was a contract story.
To both Morgan and Guy this is Epic stuff here. Thank you to both of you.
This was an amazing conversation and I knew the 2 of you would create such great energy. Morgan nailed it. You need to write about your own personal thoughts on investing. Your fans (including me myself and I) want to know more about YOU and "THE GUY SPIER WAY & METHOD OF INVESTING!".
So good! Thank you both! What a delightful conversation.
