      OUt of all the people online hes the only one that makes sense. Everyone else I listened to are complete idiots. Most people in the world ignore common sense for some reason. Maybe cause it seems to dull and boring to think on that kind of a level but it is the basic root to being successful

    Wonderful wisdom and insights as always, Mohnish. Regarding Starbucks, they actually did have some strong competition easily in from Tullies and Seattle’s Best but Starbucks had such a head start and consumer following that they couldn’t maintain. Pete’s coffee chain was actually a big influence on Howard creating Starbucks so he was part innovator and part cloner. I remember my parents taking me to the first Starbucks when visiting Seattle. My mom had read about it somewhere and Howard was making and selling the coffee himself still at that point

    Thoughts on Pony Ma's "leaked" statement regarding Tencent’s role as an "assistant and connector" and being replaceable etc? Monish Pabrai's comments here about how monopolies like to downplay their companies and business models to avoid competition and regulation have me thinking that Pony's statement is just a strategic way to avoid regulation and scrutiny and the monopoly remains very much intact.
