I remember reading Bruce Greenwald's work.
He still hasn't revisit/retracted some of his most famous takes:

Quote:Amazon’s Business Is ‘Disappearing,’ Columbia’s Greenwald Says (2011)
“Amazon trading at 100 times earnings is almost a joke,”

Quote:Bruce Greenwald: Apple is Risky Business (2013)
“The problem is that this profit machine, we know is going away,”
All due respect to Greenwald an accomplished academic; this is just for context of viewers that may not be familiar with his past works and takes.
“If you buy a business just because it’s undervalued, then you have to worry about selling it when it reaches its intrinsic value. That’s hard. But if you can buy a few great companies, then you can sit on your ass. That’s a good thing.” - Charlie Munger

Well, I reckon life couldn't be too unsmooth when you find yourself in the same picture with Pretty Woman's savior and also a supermodel that most guys grew up dreaming about.
Personally, I think the greatest lesson I take from Li Lu - is his willingness to accept reality for what it is, and not force his version of ideality onto the former.
No other investor has a life story quite as unbelievable as Li Lu
