After a chance lunch with Mr. Buffett, I’ve dedicated years to studying what makes Warren and Charlie so successful. Although they were both blessed with exceptionally high IQs, I believe their astounding wisdom comes from reading so many damned books. Their real competitive advantage is that they’ve simply out-read everyone else. Want to be the smartest person in the room? It’s simple. Read more. It’s a truly egalitarian hack that’s available to any of us who dedicate the time.

In this weekly series, I ask authors five good questions and publish the interviews for you. My goal is to use new technologies (like the internet) to inspire us toward the older (but more thoughtful) technology of books. Sometimes we need more than 140 characters to sort things out. 😉

I hope you enjoy learning from some of the biggest thinkers out there!
