Lots of highlight-able moments. Smart guy, not sure I worship at the Naval altar but enough in here to think about.
This is compilation of some of the pithy and wise quotations from Naval Ravikant. He talks about life, learning, work, success, happiness, reading, valuing time, etc. among other things. If someone has been following Naval for some time on Twitter and listening to his podcasts, there is nothing new here. For those new to Naval, this is a very good starting point, though a lot has been left out of this book. He is a great thinker and an entrepreneur, may be techno-philosopher is the right word. I do not agree with everything he says, but most of it. His best piece of advice: “You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity—a piece of business—to gain your financial freedom.” and "All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest."
The clarity of thought around the importance of leverage and the different kinds of leverage is worth the price of admission alone. Starts to get weaker towards the tail end around happiness and philosophy, but the first section is absolute gold.
There were parts where I was confused where this book was going…but it did have some nice discussion topics
Essential Reading.
This is not really a book. It is an extremely well-categorised collection of all of Naval Ravikant's thoughts and comments from podcasts, tweets, and interviews over time. Similar to Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.
Naval speaks with such eloquence and elegance that you wonder, how can someone have such a perfect answer to questions they've heard for the first time? And you realise he is truly a master of his craft.
My main takeaways: Read everything. Learn the fundamentals. Make peace with death by living in the present and you will find happiness. Compound interest. If work is like play to me, no one can ever beat me at it, because they are working and I am playing. Read everything.
I will need to reread this regularly.

Piercing insight, actionable wisdom and rational philosphy on wealth & life
Had to space this out cause there's just so much knowledge in here. 5/5 will recommend to anyone wanting to learn a few things about values, business, philosophy, habits, etc. It covers a lot of stuff. Caveat is that these are all one man's beliefs and thoughts, so don't forget to scrutinize them against your own.
