Bet heavily only inside your circle of competence

Munger's prescription isn't to avoid risk but to concentrate it. Play within your circle of competence, and when you find a mispriced bet there, go big. The mispricing is what creates your edge—inside your circle you can actually detect when something's cheap, while outside it you're gambling on noise. The asymmetry is the whole point: small bets on your guesses, heavy bets on what you genuinely understand.
