Harriman House Capital Allocators: How the world’s elite money managers lead and invest

This book offers a great toolkit for any current or becoming investor and capital allocator!

I'm a recovering investment banker, and I loved the chance to once again dive into the world of investments and money management. Capital Allocators is comprehensive, easy to read and a lot of fun! It had the fast pace of the podcast, but also the depth that only a book can bring. Hard to believe the number of experts in this book. I highly recommend it!

Combining quotes and insights from 150+ interviews of CIOs and money managers with his own 25 year experience in investment management, Ted puts the top lessons and insights from those who allocated our global capital into a well organized and easy to read book. I couldn’t put it down.

Well written and concise. I love Ted's work and the way he pulls together intellectual capital from a number of respected efforts. The only reason for the 4 vs 5 star review is that much of the content was available in one of his recent podcasts for free.

This book is a series of random quotes and name dropping without a coherent theme or message other than checkout the podcast. It promises to distill lessons, but it basically does it in checklists or bullet points rather than making an argument or telling a story. I did not find it useful.
