"A public-opinion poll is no substitute for thought." -- Warren Buffett I know people who have a lot of money, and they get testimonial dinners and they get hospital wings named after them.

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 If you understand the business, you don't need to own very many of them. If you have a harem of 40 women, you never get to know any of them very well. -- Warren Buffett “Only buy something that you’d be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years.” -- Warren Buffett "The wise do at the beginning what fools do at the end!"

And if the answer to that is yes, you don't need to ask any more questions. -- Warren Buffett "I've never bought a stock unless, in my view, it was on sale." -- John Neff Book value is an accounting concept, recording the accumulated financial input from both contributed capital and retained earnings. Intrinsic business value is an economic concept, estimating future cash output discounted to present value. Book value tells you what has been put in; intrinsic business value estimates what can be taken out. -- Warren Buffett "We believe that according the name ‘investors’ to institutions that trade actively is like calling someone who repeatedly engages in one-night stands a ‘romantic’." -- Warren Buffett "The only function of economic forecasting is to make astrology look respectable." -- John Kenneth Galbraith History does not tell you the probability of future financial things happening. -- Warren Buffett "Sometimes you're outside your core competency. Level 3 is one of those times but I've made a bet on the people and I feel I understand the people. There was a time when people made a bet on me."
