Who was the first big investor that really inspired you to learn more about investing?

Tik Tok. lol

For me it was John C Bogle, the father of Index Funding (may he rest in peace). I think I chanced upon his book as I was looking for financial books to read to start me on my investment journey in the university library which didn't look too boring to me and was quite easy to digest. His wisdom is simplistic and easy to follow, yet quite profound at the same time - why look to buy a winning stock and fail most of the time, when you can just buy the whole market and win together with the economy? Of course, I am simplifying things, but he truly set me on a path to understanding more about how the markets work, and the difficulties of trying to win it. (doesn't stop me from trying my best to do so though!)

The book was called "the little book of common sense investing" which I still remember very vividly till today.
