Benjamin Graham: Why ‘Get Rich Quick’ Is the Slowest Way to Get Rich

"Benjamin Graham taught a generation of investors a simple—but easily ignored—truth: chasing fast riches is the surest path to slow, fragile wealth. In this episode we unpack Graham’s lifetime of lessons—his personal story, the conceptual tools he invented (Mr. Market, Margin of Safety, Defensive vs. Enterprising investor), and the practical mindset that turns market noise into disciplined opportunity. Narrated in a calm, documentary-style voice and built as a masterclass lecture from history, this episode shows why patience, skepticism, and a focus on intrinsic value still beat hype-driven speculation—especially in today’s era of AI, meme stocks, and instant gratification.
