Hello! I’m Andrew.
I’m a small business operator, occasional writer, and Excel fanboy. I love steak, wine, football, and reading.
I try to live by the advice of legendary investor and billionaire Charlie Munger, who said:
"I constantly see people rise in life who are not the smartest, sometimes not even the most diligent, but they are learning machines. They go to bed every night a little wiser than they were when they got up, and boy, does that help, particularly when you have a long run ahead of you."
I want to be a learning machine, and I want to go to bed every night a little bit healthier, wealthier and wiser than when I woke up in the morning. I trust that over time, those small gains will compound into a good life.

These are the most popular posts I've written in the past ten years:
For a full list of everything I've ever written, you can click here.
I’ll be writing essays on an intermittent schedule, broadly around these themes:
Buying, running, and scaling small companies
Becoming the most effective individual and leader you can be
Doing the above while staying, healthy, happy, and finding meaning in your work
If that’s your jam, great! You’re in the right place.
I’ve also done a few twitter threads on similar topics that I plan on turning into full essays — you can check out the twitter thread versions here:
