in the margins
Some of these I've read more than once. A couple I haven't opened yet, and The Intelligent Investor is still sitting there with its spine uncracked. They all get the same shelf, because I mean to get to every one.
I don't keep score of how many I've finished. The shelf works better as a record of what I was trying to figure out at the time: focus first, then money, then people, and lately how AI models think.
This is what went in. What came out of it is spread across the rest of this site.
