Why Warren Buffett invested in Goldman Sachs

September 26, 2008

More from the master

  • When to say Yes and No? The ability to say 'no' is a tremendous advantage for an investor.
  • Want great results? Always invest for the long term. It is not necessary to do extraordinary things to get extraordinary results.
  • It is optimism that is the enemy of the rational buyer.
  • A success mantra? Much success can be attributed to inactivity. Most investors cannot resist the temptation to constantly buy and sell.
  • I am quite serious when I say that I do not believe there are, on the whole earth besides, so many intensified bores as in these United States. No man can form an adequate idea of the real meaning of the word, without coming here.
