Hi,

Hope you are doing well. Today’s recommendations are:

Everything you need to know about Finance and Investing in under an hour, by William Ackman

A 44-minute YouTube video, the title is self-descriptive. While set for an absolute beginner, this video does a good job skimming through concepts like revenue, expansion, compounding, venture capital and is a fun watch, given how cool Bill Ackman (of Pershing Square Capital Management) is.

Scorpions: The battles and triumphs of FDR’s great Supreme Court Justices, by Noah Feldman

Noah Feldman is a law prof at Harvard. Such trivialities aside, Noah looks at the stories of 4 of the most influential SCOTUS justices - how they shaped the world and how the world shaped them. Back when I read it in college, this book really got me into studying the law, with far more enthusiasm than I had earlier. While judges are either deified or demonised (not throwing shade on a law tweleb), this book looks at them as people and makes thinking about some of the biggest decisions of SCOTUS easier.

Looking forward to writing to you soon.
