For more than half a century, Warren Buffett, the chairman and CEO of
Berkshire Hathaway, has been one of the world's most respected
businessmen, not just because of his savvy investments and unmatched
record of returns, but also because of his humility, candor, and
refreshing perspective on wealth.
Despite this tremendous success, the Oracle of Omaha doesn't feel
entitled to the $89 billion net worth his abilities have earned him.
Instead, he likes to say that he was born at the right place and time,
and as an active philanthropist, he has already pledged to give most of
his money to charity. This modesty in the face of proven talent is part
of what makes Buffett as popular on Main Street as he is on Wall
Street--he is one of the world's wealthiest men and yet he is still
personable and relatable.
Now, hundreds of the most thought-provoking and inspiring quotes from
Buffett are compiled in a single book. Warren Buffett: In His Own
Words is a comprehensive guidebook to the inner workings of this
business icon, providing insight into his thoughts on investing, Wall
Street, business, politics, taxes, life lessons, and more.
This collection of quotations draws from decades of interviews,
editorials, and annual shareholder reports, amassing a comprehensive
outline of how Buffett believes a good business is run and a good life
is led. It's advice that Buffett has successfully adhered to throughout
his 88 years, and it's now available in Warren Buffett: In His Own
Words.
