Money will not change how healthy you are or how many people love you.
Warren Buffett
Image
You really don't need leverage in this world much. If you're smart, you're going to make a lot of money without borrowing. I've never borrowed a significant amount of money in my life. Never. Never will. I've got no interest in it.
Warren Buffett
Image
Look at market fluctuations as your friend rather than your enemy profit from folly rather than participate in it.
Warren Buffett
Image
You have to understand accounting and you have to understand the nuances of accounting. It's the language of business and it's an imperfect language, but unless you are willing to put in the effort to learn accounting - how to read and interpret financial statements - you really shouldn't select stocks yourself

You know, with your money and my brains, I mean, there's no telling how far we'd go.
Warren Buffett
Image

Image
Asking for financial advice from a financial planner is like asking a barber if you need a hair cut.
Warren Buffett
Image
I certainly have no desire to sell a good controlled business run by people I like and admire, merely to obtain a fancy price. However, specific conditions may cause the sale of one operating unit at some point.
Warren Buffett
Image
Most people get interested in stocks when everyone else is. The time to get interested is when no one else is. You can't buy what is popular and do well.
Warren Buffett
Image
The same things happen to quite an extent around the globe. I mean, the European banks were doing what the American banks were.
Warren Buffett
Image
I never invest in anything that I don't understand.
Warren Buffett
Image
The managers at fault periodically report on the lesson they have learned from the latest disappointment. They then usually seek out future lessons.
Warren Buffett
Image
I think you should read everything you can. In my case, by the age of 10, I'd read every book in the Omaha public library about investing, some twice. You need to fill your mind with various competing thoughts and decide which make sense.
Warren Buffett
Image
Although we deal with probabilities and expectations, the actual results can deviate substantially from such expectations, particularly on a short-term basis.
Warren Buffett
Image
There's nothing inappropriate about having debt in America. It's what helped us grow over time. And it's when debt gets out of control that you worry.
Warren Buffett
Image
Market price, while used exclusively to value our investments in minority positions, is not a relevant factor when applied to our controlling interests.
Warren Buffett

One of the ironies of the stock market is the emphasis on activity. Brokers, using terms such as 'marketability' and 'liquidity,' sing the praises of companies with high share turnover... but investors should understand that what is good for the croupier is not good for the customer. A hyperactive stock market is the pick pocket of enterprise.
