Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
So smile when you read a headline that says Investors lose as market falls. Edit it in your mind to Disinvestors lose as market falls-but investors gain. Though writers often forget this truism, there is a buyer for every seller and what hurts one necessarily helps the other. (As they say in golf matches: Every putt makes someone happy.
Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
