The reader should take the time and not rush through munger's messages as they are written for the individual to ponder and implement.
Definitely worth reading and re-reading until the book, especially the last chapter, makes a way into readers mental lattice.
Shipping
The lessons and the delivery are both top tier.
So the delivery time was disappointing but the book itself is 10/10.
Took 3 months to arrive, but well worth the wait.
Packaging/appearance
This is for a gift, but it came in a box, looks in pristine condition and has its plastic around it for extra protection.
Competitiveness
Use of multi disciplines to make the world a better place; charlie preached it better than most, pure genius.
Charlie was the one who convinced buffet to buy great companies at fair prices instead of bad companies and cheep prices.

In my own formal education at the university all subject matter experts instruct students in a vacuum that sucks up all your creativity by never connecting life dots
