More quotes by Warren Buffett
I was lucky to have the right heroes. Tell me who your heroes are and I'll tell you how you'll turn out to be. The qualities of the one you admire are the traits that you, with a little practice, can make your own, and that, if practiced, will become habit forming.
Warren Buffett
I look for businesses in which I think I can predict what they're going to look like in ten to fifteen years time. Take Wrigley's chewing gum. I don't think the internet is going to change how people chew gum.
Warren Buffett
As far as you are concerned, the stock market does not exist. Ignore it.
Warren Buffett
It is unquestionably true that the investment companies have their money more conventionally invested than we do. To many people conventionality is indistinguishable from conservatism. In my view, this represents erroneous thinking. Neither a conventional nor an unconventional approach, per se, is conservative.
Warren Buffett
When investing, pessimism is your friend, euphoria the enemy.
Warren Buffett
The great personal fortunes in the country weren't built on a portfolio of fifty companies. They were built by someone who identified one wonderful business. With each investment you make, you should have the courage and the conviction to place at least 10% of your net worth in that stock.
Warren Buffett
This country is going - be living better ten years from now than it is now. It will be living better in 20 years from now than ten years from now. The ingredients that made this country, you know, the miracle of the world - I mean we had a seven for one improvement in the average American standard of living in the 20th century.
Warren Buffett
He must never forget Charlie's plea: Tell me where I'm going to die, so I'll never go there.
Warren Buffett
You will be right, over the course of many transactions, if your hypotheses are correct, your facts are correct, and your reasoning is correct. True conservatism is only possible through knowledge and reason.
Warren Buffett
If you want a government that's going to do the things we ask our government to do, you've got to get it from somebody.
Warren Buffett
Your premium brand had better be delivering something special, or it's not going to get the business.
Warren Buffett
We're paying maybe 25 percent of the income tax, but the payroll tax is over a third of the receipts of the federal government. And they don't take that from me on capital gains. They don't take that from me on dividends.
Warren Buffett
What's hot today isn't likely to be hot tomorrow. The stock market reverts to fundamental returns over the long run. Don't follow the herd.
Warren Buffett
The typical large company has a compensation committee, They don't look for Dobermans on that committee, they look for chihuahuas.
Warren Buffett
If horses had controlled investment decisions, there would have been no auto industry.
Warren Buffett
I just don't see anything available that gives any reasonable hope of delivering such a good year and I have no desire to grope around, hoping to 'get lucky' with other people's money. I am not attuned to this market environment, and I don't want to spoil a decent record by trying to play a game I don't understand just so I can go out a hero.
Warren Buffett
Beware [of] the investment activity that produces applause the great moves are usually greeted by yawns.
Warren Buffett
Money is not everything. Make sure you earn a lot before speaking such nonsense.
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
We have learned to turn out lots of goods and services, but we haven't learned as well how to have everybody share in the bounty. The obligation of a society as prosperous as ours is to figure out how nobody gets left too far behind.
