The Most Interesting Investor Who Ever Lived

Many of the best investors in the world are extremely well known through interviews and public appearances, but one of the greatest investors of all time, is hardly known at all. His name is Li Lu.

His story of being hunted by the Chinese government, fleeing to the united states, stumbling into a Warren Buffett lecture and becoming an investing genius is incredible

His friend told Buffett was coming, he actually thought it was a free buffet (food), so he went. But then little did he know that his life would change after listening to Warren.

[BerthaHannahik]

The market trend can turn around very quickly. In fact, the indexes often switch from a bear market to a bull market when the news is at its worst and the mood of investors is at its lowest point. I read an article of people that grossed profits up to $150k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?

[sirheisenberg]

Successful investing is hard work because it means disciplining your mind to do the opposite of human nature. Buying during a panic, selling during euphoria, and holding on when you are bored and just craving a little action. Investing is 5% intellect and 95% temperament.

Greenwald in the zoom call like ”brother, I’ve been teaching this for decades now”.

This guy's got nothing on Nancy Pelosi

If Li Lu was “China’s most wanted man, ” then why on earth was he let back in to China?

[PierSilver]

He graduated with 1M with the float of student loans? (7:38) This return is of wallstreetbets proportions, how is it not addressed?

[wisdomstory]

I read his book several times. A really wise man.

[dynasty]

finally content about Li Lu, I was waiting for more exposure to his work as his life is interesting and I’ve had some books he has written in translated. Thank you so much. Value investing is the only way to invest.

Summary--
Cash flow+moat+management+long term holding+>>> intrinsic value.

[CharlesVaughn-bmgq]

LL had tremendous investing success but recent returns are poor. He was able to pick up deep value stocks back in the day.

[akhan]

His picture was on radio @3:33 that's next level wanted

[gregoriohb]

If he made lots os money in a short period of time (1M in three years, implied in the video) he can even be the best investor of all time, but, by definition, he is not practicing value investing

[rajk-qkne]

How they always reveal trail of their escape and block others like them from escaping, why no one talks about that....

[mikegofton]

Thanks Hamish, understanding how investors became successful is insightful.

[mylifeismymisery]

After the crackdown on the movement, he fled the PRC and went to New York City at the age of 23, where his grandfather had received his PhD at Columbia University. (source: wiki)

Li Lu is definitely great. With the background and also with a lot of success in young age. He balance quality together with the value. Consider also financial figures with the management and skin in the game. When feels good is able to put a huge concentrated bets!

[CelluloidPDS]

1. Be a generalist when choosing assets, & be a specialist when investing in a specific asset.

2. Intrinsic value depend on the competitiveness of the company, its management, and business activities.

3. Risk does not arise from stock price volatility, but whether your capital is safe. (relates to 2nd point about picking the right business)

[mhu]

Fascinating! Could you do a video on his stock portfolio, like you do on Michael Burry’s? It would be certainly very interesting

[wojciech.kaczmarek]

aaaa, i knew this is about LL, his story is crazy
