Inspirational quotes by Warren Buffett

Michael Yardney's Commentary
Inspirational quotes by Warren Buffett

Warren Edward Buffett is an investment guru and one of the richest and most respected businessmen in the world.

Here are some of his quotes:

1. If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.

2. Look for 3 things in a person. Intelligence, Energy, & Integrity. If they don't have the last one, don't even bother with the first two.

4. If you cannot control your emotions, you cannot control your money.

5. The Happiest people DO NOT necessarily have the BEST THINGS. They simply APPRECIATE the things they have.

Pablo2

7. Read 500 pages every day. That's how knowledge works. It builds up like compound interest.

8. 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.

10. Chains of habit are too light to be felt until they are too heavy to be broken.

… And an extra BONUS

Hi Michael, I sometime think and think, as my elders thought me “Old is Gold”. Experience matters. etc etc. But i have a serious thought. I think the age between 50 to 60 is the best to describe matured, experienced and has the ability to listen and respond accordingly with patience and accuracy. I don’t find that happening at all. I am 54 Yrs of age, migrated, had done my Diploma in Mech Engg, Diploma in sales and Marketing at a young age when i was 20. Again at this age, I did my Diploma in Travel and tourism, Certificate course in Real Estate and still looking for a job to make my bread and butter for me and my family. I don”t think any company or principal wants to hire a person nearing 55. Sad and Coved19 has played a bit too.
