Michael McCloskey: If Investing Was Like Painting... Lessons from A Path to Mastery
Manage episode 436613913 series 3515100
(I’ll be posting two episodes per week for a little bit to catch up with all the summer recordings. Enjoy!)
My guest today is Michael McCloskey, who founded and manages Greenskeeper, a value investing firm. Michael and I met at Guy Spier’s VALUEx Conference. We snowshoed together in the Swiss Alps at some point and shared many conversations both in Switzerland and at Buffett’s Berkshire Meeting in Omaha. Today, we talk about thoughtful, disciplined stockpicking, and the passion for a particular kind of investing, and lessons from running an investment firm.
Michael graduated with a dual J.D./M.B.A. degree after completing his undergraduate degree in Mathematics. He is an Ironman finisher, an avid golfer and cyclist, and a voracious reader. He and his wife have two daughters and live in the suburbs of Toronto.
Takeways:
Childhood experiences and upbringing can shape an individual's curiosity and interests in the world of investing.
Being different and embracing one's unique perspective is important in standing out as an investor.
A background in law can provide valuable skills and knowledge that can be applied to investing, such as understanding contracts, property rights, and securities law.
Investing is a continuous learning process, and investors evolve and improve over time.
Mistakes are opportunities for learning and growth, and it is important to be honest with oneself about them. Learning from mistakes and being self-aware are crucial in investing.
Investing alongside clients creates alignment of incentives.
Long-term thinking and low portfolio turnover can lead to success.
The ValueX community provides support and knowledge-sharing.
Success is maximizing opportunities, being content, and having the freedom to choose.
