May 13, 2022 | Leave a Comment

Value Investing Workshop: June 2022 Batch

I recently opened admission to the May 2022 cohort of my online Value Investing Workshop. Seats got sold off within a few hours. And so, I have opened admission for the June 2022 cohort, and accepting only 50 students, out of which 20 seats remain. If you are interested to join, click here to register now.


Welcome to the eighteenth episode of The One Percent Show with Vishal Khandelwal. This show is an open-ended exploration into the minds of the wisest people around to help us learn to think, invest, and live each day a little, even if as little as one percent, better.

In this episode, I talk to Kuntal Shah, Partner at Oaklane Capital, Co-Founder at Needl.ai, and a Board member at Flame University. An Electronics Engineer by qualification, Kuntalbhai is a first-generation entrepreneur, a business leader, and a prominent value investor with three decades of experience spanning various aspects of the capital market.

I look up to him as a fountain of knowledge and wisdom, especially when it comes to investing, business analysis, and the economy. I have had the opportunity to learn from him and his experiences for the past few years, through his various talks and presentations, and I must thank him for all his wisdom he has shared over the years.

In this episode, we talk about the importance of understanding stock market cycles, lessons from financial history, twelve equations of life, and much more.

Guy Spier on Warren Buffett’s Annual Meeting and the Power of Your Social Network

April 22, 2022 | Leave a Comment

Welcome to the seventeenth episode of The One Percent Show with Vishal Khandelwal. This show is an open-ended exploration into the minds of the wisest people around to help us learn to think, invest, and live each day a little, even if as little as one percent, better.

In this episode, I talk to Guy Spier, founder and investment manager at Aquamarine Capital, and author of The Education of a Value Investor, which is one of the best books I have read about someone’s personal journey in life, business, and investing.

This was supposed to be a long interaction on Guy’s ideas on investing, but due to tech issues, we had to curtail it. So, this episode contains just one question from my side and then Guy’s lessons from visiting Warren Buffett’s Berkshire’s Annual Meeting every year and the power that our social network has on us.

The One Percent Show: Arnold Van Den Berg on the Power of Your Subconscious Mind

January 29, 2022 | 4 Comments

Welcome to the fourteenth episode of The One Percent Show with Vishal Khandelwal. This show is an open-ended exploration into the minds of the wisest people around to help us learn to think, invest, and live each day a little, even if as little as one percent, better.

In this episode, I talk to Arnold Van Den Berg, Chairman and CEO of Century Management and among the best investors in the world. In this episode, we talk about Arnold’s 80+ years experience in winning a losing hand, constructing a good life, and the power of subconscious mind.

This episode is worth more than a 2-year MBA and contains a lifetime of ideas about how one can go about building a good life despite the tragedies it offers. It was supposed to be about 50% investing and 50% life. It turned out to be 99% life and 1% investing, and that was wonderful.

I would like you to listen, uninterrupted, to Arnold’s stories and the most important lessons and principles that have guided him for the past few decades.

Arnold’s life must be celebrated and remembered, and it was my great pleasure to talk to him. I am sure you would find bliss in all that he has to share, like I did.
