More quotes by Warren Buffett
An investor needs to do very few things right as long as he or she avoids big mistakes.
Warren Buffett
In the great majority of cases we simply do not know enough about the industry or company to come to sensible judgments-in that situation we pass.
Warren Buffett
Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing.
Warren Buffett
The advice you never go broke taking a profit is foolish.
Warren Buffett
The stock market is a wonderfully efficient mechanism for transferring wealth from the impatient to the patient.
Warren Buffett
So some guy may know how to make money in cocoa beans, but I don't so I just let him have that. But it's got to be something I understand. It's got to be a business with fundamentally good economics. It's got to be a management that I like and trust and admire. And it's got to be a price that makes sense.
Warren Buffett
If you cannot control your emotions, you cannot control your money.
Warren Buffett
I don't look to jump over 7-foot bars: I look around for 1-foot bars that I can step over.
Warren Buffett
Government can't deliver a free lunch to the country as a whole. It can, however, determine who pays for lunch. And last week the Senate handed the bill to the wrong party... the poor and middle class.
Warren Buffett
A stock doesn't know that you own it.
Warren Buffett
Of the billionaires I have known, money just brings out the basic traits in them. If they were jerks before they had money, they are simply jerks with a billion dollars.
Warren Buffett
You don't need to be a rocket scientist. Investing is not a game where the guy with the 160 IQ beats the guy with 130 IQ.
Warren Buffett
In business, I look for economic castles protected by unbreachable 'moats'.
Warren Buffett
We've used up a lot of bullets. And we talk about stimulus. But the truth is, we're running a federal deficit that's 9 percent of GDP. That is stimulative as all get out. It's more stimulative than any policy we've followed since World War II.
Warren Buffett
If you're extremely rich, and you have got children, my theory was, you give them enough so they can do anything, but not enough so they can do nothing.
Warren Buffett
I think that both parties should declare the debt limit as a political weapon of mass destruction which can't be used. I mean, it is silly to have a country that has 237 years building up its reputation and then have people threaten to tear it down because they're not getting some other matter.
Warren Buffett
By periodically investing in an index fund, the know-nothing investors can actually outperform most investment professionals.
Warren Buffett
We don't get paid for activity, just for being right. As to how long we'll wait, we'll wait indefinitely.
Warren Buffett
If you've got a good enough business, if you have a monopoly newspaper, if you have a network television station - I'm talking of the past - you know, your idiot nephew could run it. And if you've got a really good business, it doesn't make any difference.
Warren Buffett
Beware of geeks bearing formulas.
