#美国核心物价涨幅不及市场预估 Want to turn things around in 2026? Instead of wasting time on pointless efforts, learn the simplest wealth principles.

Charlie Munger’s approach to wealth accumulation may seem simple, but it reveals three truths that most ordinary people tend to overlook.

**Level 1: Extreme frugality to save your first bucket of gold**

It’s not about living a hard life, but about always spending less than you earn. Live simply, stay away from consumption traps and debt quagmires — this is the starting point.

Munger relied on this strategy in his youth: frugal living plus part-time side jobs, gradually saving enough startup capital for his business. He repeatedly emphasizes one thing: there are no shortcuts to wealth accumulation. You must start early and persist long-term. Don’t fantasize about getting rich overnight. The first $100,000 is especially critical.

**Level 2: Continuous improvement and seizing opportunities**

Charge yourself daily — read books, learn skills, expand your cognitive boundaries, and gradually build your own “ability moat.” The more you understand, the easier it is for opportunities to find you.

Munger once said something very insightful: "In a lifetime, it’s enough to seize a few truly good opportunities." The key is not to follow the crowd blindly. When real quality opportunities arrive, go all-in without hesitation.

**Level 3: Patience and holding, let time and compound interest do the work**

After finding trustworthy quality assets, hold them for the long term. Frequent trading will only eat into your profits. Leverage, gambling, chasing trends — these are all pitfalls.

Munger’s classic warning still holds today: "Great wealth is not born from frequent trading, but from long-term patience and accumulation." This logic works in any era.

Munger's logic is not wrong, but how many people can truly do it? Most people still have itchy hands, and as soon as they see market fluctuations, they want to go all in or cut losses... This is probably the biggest enemy of wealth accumulation.

Munger's way of thinking sounds really right, but I just want to ask... can we still slowly accumulate now? Inflation is eating people up really fast. It's nice to call it "playing the long game," but actually it's just betting on the chance of the future. I can't really afford to gamble.

Munger's logic seems a bit naive when applied to the crypto circle. Those who bought Bitcoin early have already won big, and you're still teaching people to live frugally and save for their first pot of gold? They really missed out on four years of market gains.

Sounds good, but in reality, most people can't even save their first 100,000...

nah, this munger playbook hits different when you realize most people are already trapped in the dark forest... they're getting sandwiched before they even place the order. talking about "patient holding" while the system's literally extracting your alpha through mev every single block lmao. real wealth move? understand the game first, then play it.

Munger's point is correct, but to be honest, 99% of people in the crypto world simply can't stick with it. I myself have experienced this too; last year, I chased after many trends before realizing that a combination of multi-signature wallets and cold storage is the most reliable. The first pot of gold was indeed accumulated this way, but later on, it relies on on-chain analysis and risk assessment; otherwise, a small coin could go to zero in an instant, and all efforts would be wasted.

Hmm... That's right, but most people just can't do it. As soon as they see the coin's price go up, they get itchy hands.

It sounds nice, but how many people can really do it... I'm the kind of person who knows I should save money but always ends up blowing it.
