John C. Bogle and William Bernstein define “enough” and suggest another golden rule: never confuse your self-worth with your net worth.

Knowing Enough combines the penetrating insights into investing and life of John C. Bogle, the founder of Vanguard and the pioneer of index investing, and the priceless practical advice of William J. Bernstein, bestselling author of The Four Pillars of Investing and market historian. Their conversations were the centerpiece of Boglehead meetings until Bogle’s passing on January 19, 2019.

The book combines Bogle’s insights from his bestselling Enough and Bernstein’s practical how-to, If You Can. Their goal: to inspire you to lead a meaningful life that reaches well beyond your net worth to touch upon matters of self-worth, and to provide you with the means of doing so. You’ll also find:



How to focus less on chasing financial success and more on living a meaningful life
Insight into investing wisely and contributing to the common good
Reflections on lessons learned from Bogle throughout his career


Written in the same conversational tone found between Bogle and Bernstein at Boglehead events, Knowing Enough challenges readers to rethink their relationship with money, business, and society.

John C. Bogle founded the Vanguard Group in 1974 and was a revered figure in the mutual fund industry until his passing in 2019. He also started the world’s first index mutual fund. A graduate of Blair Academy and Princeton University, he spent his entire career championing the individual investor. Bogle was a prolific writer for the investment profession authoring twelve books, many being bestsellers. William J. Bernstein is a neurologist, co-founder of Efficient Frontier Advisors, an investment management firm, and has written several titles on finance and economic history. He has contributed to peer-reviewed finance literature and has written for national publications, including Money magazine and The Wall Street Journal.
