Are you consider yourself a curious person? Do you want to have meaningful conversations about morality, mortality, and the human experience? If your brain was a muscle, don’t you want to exercising it regularly?
This group started in 2021 and we mostly read philosophical literature. We don’t read books to make us money, but we do read books that make us filthy rich in soul.
At the beginning of my investing career I was devouring podcasts and books about business and self improvement but quickly found these genres shallow and repetitive. My curiosity was left completely unfulfilled, and I was mad about it. I followed my own instincts regarding book and completely left my peers. I found myself enjoying books with real substance, philosophy, and difficult ideas and I needed to find people to share this with. Slowly but surely we became this group of misfits who were interested in money and meaning. Having honest and intellectually demanding conversations with friends has become one of the most valuable activities in my life.
This group is easy to join and we will wholeheartedly welcome you. You can come for one book or become a regular. This is a small group and always will be because we read serious books. The meetings are low structure, and we make sure everyone gets time to talk, and we like to shit talk each other (well, I do).
