More quotes by Warren Buffett
A Company should be viewed as an unfolding movie, not as a still photograph
Warren Buffett
I don't have my diploma from the University of Nebraska hanging on my office wall, and I don't have my diploma from Columbia up there either-but I do have my Dale Carnegie graduation certificate proudly displayed.
Warren Buffett
Our favorite holding period is forever.
Warren Buffett
I have never been able to understand why the tax comes as such a body blow to many people since the rate on long-term capital gain is lower than on most likes of endeavor (tax policy indicated digging ditches is regarded as socially less desirable than shuffling stock certificates).
Warren Buffett
Writing a check separates a commitment from a conversation.
Warren Buffett
Exercise humility and restraint.
Warren Buffett
When bills come due, only cash is legal tender. Don't leave home without it.
Warren Buffett
My net worth is the market value of holdings less the tax payable upon sale. The liability is just as real as the asset unless the value of the asset declines (ouch), the asset is given away (no comment), or I die with it. The latter course of action would appear to at least border on a Pyrrhic victory.
Warren Buffett
Our policy is to concentrate holdings. We try to avoid buying a little of this or that when we are only lukewarm about the business or its price. When we are convinced as to attractiveness, we believe in buying worthwhile amounts.
Warren Buffett
Interest rates are to asset prices what gravity is to the apple. When there are low interest rates, there is a very low gravitational pull on asset prices.
Warren Buffett
If you owe money, you can't pay them out. You just pay for everything, you do smart things, you eventually get very rich.
Warren Buffett
A fool and his money are soon invited everywhere.
Warren Buffett
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
An IPO is like a negotiated transaction - the seller chooses when to come public - and it's unlikely to be a time that's favourable to you.
Warren Buffett
The future is never clear you pay a very high price in the stock market for a cheery consensus. Uncertainty actually is the friend of the buyer of long-term values.
Warren Buffett
I like to buy things I can understand. I do a lot of research on things.
Warren Buffett
During inflation, Goodwill is the gift that keeps on giving.
Warren Buffett
Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken.
Warren Buffett
Asking for financial advice from a financial planner is like asking a barber if you need a hair cut.
Warren Buffett
Possessing a powerful worldwide brand is essential for sustained success.
