What Charlie Munger actually said

  1. Charlie Munger Warren Buffett's business partner and vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway
    It’s like the old saying, “To the man with only a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.” And of course, that’s the way the chiropractor goes about practicing medicine. But that’s a perfectly disastrous way to think and a perfectly disastrous way to operate in the world. So you’ve got to have multiple models.
