Learning from the Greats: The Power of Reading and Mentorship

Tai Lopez is an investor, entrepreneur, author and aspiring renaissance man.  When he's not throwing A-list celebrity parties (Tyler Durden of RSD included) in his Hollywood Hills home he's chin-wagging with Warren Buffet and Bill Gates at the annual Berkshire Hathaway meeting.  Tai reads a book a day and sends his reviews to 1.2 million of his close, close friends.  He's both lived with the Amish for 2 years and started 12 multi-million dollar companies.

And that's just the warmup.  Tai has a 67 step plan you can follow to "Lead the Good Life" which values Health, Wealth, Love and Happiness.  He subscribes to Warren Buffet's #2 man Charlie Munger's "Concept of Inversion" which instructs you to directly avoid those things that will hurt your chances of success.  

He also believes that humans are subject to 25 Cognitive Biases and that Arnold Schwarzeneggar's concept of "Doing Reps" applies directly to life.  He makes a big distinction between Stoics an Epicureans and believe's the "4-hour Workweek" is for people who are doing something they hate.

I was impressed by Tai because he's not a self-help guru but instead a man who believes that the really best knowledge has stood the test of time.  Enjoy.
