#20 Shree Viswanathan on A Search in Secret India
Manage episode 326034480 series 3302474
Shree Viswanathan is the founder, president, and portfolio manager of SVN Capital. In a deep and thoughtful conversation, we revisit the book with the biggest impact on Shree's life - "A Search in Secret India" by Paul Brunton. As we discuss ego reduction, intuition, anchoring, and how to evaluate people; it is evident that spiritualism helps, and perhaps even is necessary, to become a successful investor.
For this episode, we want to give a special thanks to our listener @assonmoneymess, who connected us with Shree. We welcome all suggestions of interesting authors, books, investors, and voracious readers around the world @IB_Redeye. The episode was recorded on March 30, 2022.
