The Almanack of Naval Ravikant

First I want to clarify that the book is not written by Naval himself. It's a collection of his public writings and sayings assembled by Eric Jorgenson.

Overall opinion - The book is kinda chaotic and has some contradicting statements. I find this pretty annoying combined with a lack of explanation in many other places. Despite some views that I don't share I find his work pretty engaging and easy to read.

Before reading, I had never listened to Naval's podcast or read anything about his philosophy. I was greatly surprised as it introduced some new mental models. I find the philosophy chapters more valuable than the wealth part. Within these chapters, he describes Buddhist concepts and his personal beliefs on the topics of existence, happiness, and the meaning of life (the usual suspects).
