Let me make the ... ( 3 years ago by TheWorldsLawyer)

Let me make the first comment to this. Firstly thank you for posting this and I am impressed with Warren and what he has done over time however he is still fallable. At one point he wanted in on Fanny Mae but missed out and regretted it. His intent was to buy and had he managed he would have lost an awful lot of money in the recent crash. Still, fascinating work though I am convinced there is more to Warren's strategy than we will ever be allowed to see. Warren and Bill Gates rule and Melinda!

I believe Warren ... ( 3 years ago by Pauleneclaire)

I believe Warren did have Fanny Mae and got out when he saw the tack it was taking with junk mortgages.

You can judge a man ... ( 3 years ago by daniellewis2008)

You can judge a man by his company. I think Warren Buffett also has very good taste in people. I like Alice Schroeder, she appears very capable and still human. He chose her for a reason. She also did an excellent job with the biography. Good on ya, gal!

another success ... ( 9 months ago by philipjterry)

another success criteria I think gets overlooked is he has never played catch up with his lifestyle, he stayed well positioned in one place over a long period with what appears to be steady frugal daily routine. I think this is a huge factor. If I like myself you keep changing offices, countries the "snowball" quick dissintegrates and needs to be rebuilt.

@Pauleneclaire No, ... ( 4 months ago by kawola17)

@Pauleneclaire No, he actually said, not buying Fanny Mae was one of his biggest mistakes. Mistake by omission.
