FYI: My friend Patrick O’Shaughnessy is a professional investor with a book club. A while ago he sent his club an email with his favorite books of the year.
“Consistent with my belief that it is more productive to read around one’s field than in one’s field, there are no investing books on this list,” it read.
This is such a powerful concept.
Most of us spend too much time in the bubble of our own professions, unaware of how much there is to learn from other fields. A lot of jobs fall under the category of “trying to figure out what other people want,” so many ideas from one field transfer to another.
Here are a few takeaways from various professions that are relevant to business and investing.
