You're listening to TIP. Hi there, it's wonderful to be back with you again on the Richer, Wiser, Happier podcast. Our guest today is one of the great long term investors, Bill Nigren. Bill is the chief investment officer at a firm called Harris Associates, where he oversees about $25 billion. He's generated a superb investment record over more than 30 years.
Today's long, in depth conversation with him will give you a clear and thorough sense, I think, of what it takes to sustain that level of investment success over such a long period. As I see it, Bill perfectly embodies a lot of what it takes to beat the market over the course of a long and distinguished career. For a start, there's his raw intellect and his idiosyncratic wiring, and an intensely competitive spirit. You'll also see that he has these very robust investing principles and a willingness to keep evolving and changing the way he operates and invests.
There's also an exceptionally disciplined and rigorous investment process that he's developed over many years, and a really unusual openness to dissenting opinions from other highly intelligent investors who work alongside him in his team at Harris Associates. In short, I think if you want to succeed as an investor over the long term, there's a huge amount to learn from Bill Nigren. But before we get started with our conversation, I also wanted to mention a new venture that I'm really excited about and that I hope might interest you too. Later this year, I'm going to be launching a richer, wiser, happier masterclass. for a very small select group of people who'd like to study with me over the course of a year.
