About the Episode

This final episode of The Almanack of Naval Ravikant includes Naval’s favorite books, his recommended reading, and more thoughts. This is a great resource to view Naval’s influences, and to find books to read deeper on key ideas from the book: investing, mental models, happiness, philosophy, and science. You’ll notice authors like Matt Ridley, Nassim Taleb, Richard Feynman, and more as well as some blog posts from Naval in this Epilogue.

Important Quotes from the podcast on Books:

Read enough, and you become a connoisseur. Then you naturally gravitate more toward theory, concepts, nonfiction. – Naval Ravikant

I always spent money on books. I never viewed that as an expense. That’s an investment to me. – Naval Ravikant

If you eat, invest, and think according to what the “news” advocates, you’ll end up nutritionally, financially, and morally bankrupt. – Naval Ravikant
