Who am I?
I’m Kalani Scarrott, a lifelong student and private investor, born and raised in Australia (although currently travelling through Southeast Asia indefinitely). I love reading, investing, and asking ‘why?’.
People and their stories have always been an interest of mine. We’re all human, but some people’s achievements seem superhuman. So how do they achieve that?
And what do others reckon?
Now this is a value added Substack!

What’s the edgiest book you’ve ever read?, by @ScarrottKalani
Wonderful background piece on Li Lu by @ScarrottKalani
“You prove to them you’re good, people trust you. They don’t ask how many years I’ve managed a fund. The question is, Can you make me money? Show me the money!"
"A friend said, “If you really want to make money you have to listen to this fellow.” I wasn’t sure what it was all about. I just remember thinking that there was a 'buffet' involved. So I assumed that it was some kind of talk with a free lunch."
Incredible story, regardless of what you think of his investing acumen

Very well made video.
Li Lu is not only an incredibly talented, legendary Investor but a human driven by values and principles. That makes him a rare occurence. As an Investor I have always looked up to his values. One must read his book "Moving the Mountains"
Best luck mate :)
