I went to the library today, as I’ve been unable to find Keynes’s investment correspondence for sale for the $100 or less that I’d pay (I found out about the book on this blog). I learned some things:
1) my phone’s camera is so good that I don’t need to use a xerox machine
2) bring earplugs to the library - those guys are weird, annoying, and loud
3) Keynes was one of the best economists of the 20th century, extremely plugged in to politics, and still - unable to make money with macro investing.
4) Keynes eventually became a successful value investor, proving the power of Charlie Munger’s quip: “I’m right, and you’re smart, and sooner or later you’ll see I’m right.”
I might post a link to my google doc pdf of 20+ good pages from the book.
