Vishal Khandelwal: The Sketchbook of Wisdom, A Hand-Crafted Manual on the Pursuit of Wealth and Good Life

Vishal Khandelwal is the founder of Safal Niveshak, an investor education initiative. He is an independent analyst and financial writer. He says that he spends 75% of his waking time reading. He is the author of The Sketchbook of Wisdom, A Hand-Crafted Manual on the Pursuit of Wealth and Good Life. I highly recommend it; it’s a beautiful book packed with the wisdom of the ages, from Lord Krishna to Socrates, Charlie Munger, and Warren Buffett. He also published Mental Models, Investing and You, which covers ideas from various disciplines, from psychology, economics, business, and mathematics to literature, statistics, and more. Today, we take on some big questions. First, we’ll hear Vishal’s thoughts on what life is all about beyond eating and making money. We talk about kindness and how to be okay when things are not. My guest shared ideas about the concept of freedom, a topic that came up many times on the show. I really enjoy hearing about minimizing the cost of being wrong, which is at the essence of my own investment philosophy. We dive into a beautiful image that our wealth is like our children, our primary link between the present and the future. Stay tuned until the end, when Vishal tells me if money can buy happiness. https://www.safalniveshak.com/about-vishal/ Twitter: @safalniveshak is the founder of Safal Niveshak, an investor education initiative.
