More quotes by Warren Buffett
Good profits simply are not inconsistent with good behavior.
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

Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett
If principles can become dated, they're not principles.
Warren Buffett
Do not save what is left after spending, but spend what is left after saving.
Warren Buffett
If you get to my age in life and nobody thinks well of you, I don't care how big your bank account is, your life is a disaster.
Warren Buffett
Just imagine living on 21,000 a year. I mean you have 20 percent of the population doing that. So you don't have to worry about guys like me.
Warren Buffett
You're dealing with a lot of silly people in the marketplace it's like a great big casino and everyone else is boozing. If you can stick with Pepsi, you should be OK.
Warren Buffett
