" Mary Buffett -- author of three books on Warren Buffett's
investment methods -- joins noted Buffettologist and international
lecturer David Clark to bring you Warren Buffett's smartest,
funniest, and most memorable sayings with an eye toward revealing
the life philosophy and the investment strategies that have made
Warren Buffett, and the shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway, so
enormously wealthy.
Warren Buffett's investment achievements are unparalleled. He
owes his success to hard work, integrity, and that most elusive
commodity of all, common sense. The quotations in this book
exemplify Warren's practical strategies and provide useful
illustrations for every investor -- large or small -- and models
everyone can follow. The quotes are culled from a variety of
sources, including personal conversations, corporate reports,
profiles, and interviews. The authors provide short explanations
for each quote and use examples from Buffett's own business
transactions whenever possible to illustrate his words at work.
As Warren says:
"You should invest in a business that even a fool can run,
because someday a fool will."
"With enough inside information and a million dollars, you can
go broke in a year."
"No matter how great the talent or effort, some things just take
time: You can't produce a baby in one month by getting nine women
pregnant."
"Our method is very simple. We just try to buy businesses with
good-to-superb underlying economics run by honest and able people
and buy them at sensible prices. That's all I'm trying to do."
"The Tao of Warren Buffett" inspires, amuses, sharpens the
mind, and offers priceless investment savvy that anyone can take to
the bank. This irresistibly browsable and entertaining book is
destined to become a classic.
