Meet William Green and ask your questions July 29th 10:30 am ET - interactive investor workshop CRACKING THE BILLIONAIRE INVESTOR MINDSET: Secure your seat at this free webinar here https://www.opalesque.com/webinar/

More than anything, it's the mindset which determines an investor's ability to achieve towering returns and long-term success.

Few are better equipped to explore the mindset of the world's greatest investors than William Green, who has interviewed, studied and befriended more than fifty of the leading global investors over the last 25 years. William authored “The Great Minds of Investing” (2015) and most recently "RICHER, WISER, HAPPIER: How the World's Greatest Investors Win in Markets and Life," which examines how to stack the odds in our favor so we can build lives that are truly successful and abundant. The book is already a global bestseller, has received extraordinary customer reviews on Amazon (https://amzn.to/2TzH9BC), and is currently being translated into 12 languages.

In this interactive INVESTOR WORKSHOP, William Green and Matthias Knab will dive into the “Habits of Mind” of remarkable Billionaire Investors and distill five key strategies of their mental make-up which can enrich us financially, professionally and personally.

Feel free to email me your question(s) to [email protected] and see you at the webinar: https://www.opalesque.com/webinar/
We are thanking Dhando Investor Mohnish Pabrai for his exemplary work and commitment to invest smarter and for a better world.

I am also grateful to Guy Spier for his steadfast and abiding contributions to better connect and share within the investment community. William Green helped Guy to write his much-praised memoir, The Education of a Value Investor, and is an adviser to the board of Guy's firm, Aquamarine Capital.
