Beating The Street by Peter Lynch: Preface

Read Beating The Street so you can become a better investor - https://amzn.to/2SLNupD

Welcome to the After Dinner Investor Library where we read books and become better investors. Today's episode covers the preface of Peter Lynch's Beating The Street.

At 1:29 I said he walked away at 86, I meant age 46.

In this episode we learn:

How many stocks Peter Lynch bought.
How much he exercised.
How many books he read.
His options at retirement.

My key takeaways from the preface were:

Tracking lots of companies is difficult, and that's why it's good to be a focus investor.
Always look for opportunity and ideas. Always be learning.
Be competitive and pursue beating the market. This competitive drive can give you energy.
Fund managers should pick their own stocks.
Have the walk away moment in mind before it's too late.
