Warren Buffett
SUPPOSE that an investor you admire and trust comes to you with an investment idea. This is a good one, he says enthusiastically. I'm in it, and I think you should be, too.
Warren Buffett
Successful Investing takes time, discipline and patience. No matter how great the talent or effort, some things just take time: You can't produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant.
Warren Buffett
I did not think I would see the day when, you know, an AIG would not be able to have its checks clear.
Warren Buffett
Economic medicine that was previously meted out by the cupful has recently been dispensed by the barrel. These once unthinkable dosages will almost certainly bring on unwelcome after-effects. Their precise nature is anyone's guess, though one likely consequence is an onslaught of inflation.
Warren Buffett
It's a big mistake to try and mislead people. They will turn around.
Warren Buffett
If you own the only newspaper in town, up until the last five years or so, you have pricing power and you didn't have to go to the office.
Warren Buffett
When a management with reputation for brilliance gets hooked up with a business with a reputation for bad economics, it's the reputation of the business that remains intact.
Warren Buffett
Turnarounds seldom turn.
