More quotes by Warren Buffett
Opportunities come infrequently. When it rains gold, put out the bucket, not the thimble.
Warren Buffett
We have embraced the 21st century by entering such cutting-edge industries as brick, carpet, insulation and paint. Try to control your excitement.
Warren Buffett
In one way, I'm sympathetic to the institutional reluctance to face the music. I'd give a lot to mark my weight to 'model' rather than to 'market.'
Warren Buffett
I asked him what he wanted to do for his career, and he replied that he wanted to go into a particular field, but thought he should work for McKinsey for a few years first to add to his resume. To me that's like saving sex for your old age. It makes no sense.
Warren Buffett
In a bull market, one must avoid the error of the preening duck that quacks boastfully after a torrential rainstorm, thinking that its paddling skills have caused it to rise in the world. A right-thinking duck would instead compare its position after the downpour to that of the other ducks on the pond.
Warren Buffett
You don't have to be a genius to invest well
Warren Buffett
Too often, executive compensation in the U.S. is ridiculously out of line with performance. That won't change, moreover, because the deck is stacked against investors when it comes to the CEO's pay.
Warren Buffett
Charlie and I have a number of filters that things have to get through before we'll think about them.
Warren Buffett
If I knew where I was going to want to live the next five or 10 years I would buy a home and I'd finance it with a 30-year mortgage... It's a terrific deal.
Warren Buffett
I think you are out of your mind if you keep taking jobs that you don't like because you think it will look good on your resume. Isn't that a little like saving up sex for your old age?
Warren Buffett
If you can tell me who your heroes are, I can tell you how you're going to turn out in life.
Warren Buffett
If I eat 2,700 calories a day, a quarter of that is Coca-Cola.
Warren Buffett
The rest of the world really likes our stuff pretty well. It's just we buy so damn much of what they produce.
Warren Buffett
When people talk about cash being king, it's not king if it just sits there and never does anything.
Warren Buffett
A prediction about the direction of the stock market tells you nothing about where stocks are headed, but a whole lot about the person doing the predicting.
Warren Buffett
We've used derivatives for many, many years. I don't think derivatives are evil, per se, I think they are dangerous.
Warren Buffett
The U.S. Treasury has got borrowing costs like nobody else has.
Warren Buffett
When you're associating with the people that you love, doing what you love, it doesn't get any better than that.
Warren Buffett
The most common cause of low prices is pessimism - sometimes pervasive, sometimes specific to a company or industry. We want to do business in such an environment, not because we like pessimism but because we like the prices it produces.
Warren Buffett
It's a lot easier to buy things than it is to sell them.
