An empowering story of learning from life’s challenges―with critical insights, strategies, and lessons you can take to the bank
In The Probability of Life, Larry Hite tells how he went from dyslexia, partial blindness, and isolation to the founder of Mint, one of the most profitable and largest quantitative hedge funds in the world. Larry’s journey presents invaluable lessons gained primarily from failure and those failures seen across humorous stories are packed with timeless investing wisdom. These are the exact lessons that propelled Hite to the top of the investing world.
Hite’s wisdom gained from a life as an investor comes through on every page. He shows that investing decisions are not only bets or gambles, but investments in time, energy, and attention. By focusing on realistic returns on these investments, versus what we expect or hope to get, we immediately improve our probability for success.
