Member News and Reading Inspiration

Dear members,

Secure your seat at Latticework 2022, our member event of the year, to be held at the Yale Club of New York City on December 13.

This year's edition of Latticework will focus on intelligent investing in the context of elevated inflation. We will explore the theme, "Compounders versus Commodity Businesses in an Inflationary World".

It is my pleasure to announce a new keynote speaker: Christopher Tsai, President and Chief Investment Officer of Tsai Capital Corporation. I have benefited tremendously from Christopher's wisdom and look forward to his insights into investing in an age of disruption.

Christopher joins a terrific spaker lineup, which includes Chris Bloomstran, President and Chief Investment Officer of Semper Augustus Investments Group. Additional speakers will be announced in the coming weeks.

Reserve your seat today (early-bird discount expires soon).

Warmly,

John
