Becoming Warren Buffett Interview | Rule #1: Never Lose Money

Warren Buffett discusses family, the importance of focus, taking emotions out of investment, the danger of inequity and the dark parts of the financial world.

Warren Edward Buffett was born on August 30, 1930, in Omaha, Nebraska. He demonstrated a knack for financial and business matters early in his childhood and enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania at the age of 16 to study business, transferring to the University of Nebraska to complete his degree. He received his master’s degree in economics at Columbia University and furthered his education at the New York Institute of Finance. In 1956 Buffet formed the firm Buffett Partnership Ltd., leading to the acquisition of a textile company named Berkshire Hathaway, which he ultimately expanded into media assets such as The Washington Post, insurance, and oil. Earning the nickname the “Oracle of Omaha” he even managed to make seemingly poor investments profitable, most notably scandal-plagued Salomon Brothers in 1987. Buffett became director of the company from 1989-2006 following Berkshire Hathaway’s significant investment in Coca-Cola. In 2006 Buffett announced he would be committing his fortune to philanthropy, with 85 percent pledged to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which became the largest act of charitable giving in United States history.

Warrens lifelong admiration for Rosie is simply INSPIRING! “SHE PUT ME TOGETHER - HELPED ME GROW UP!”

Moral of the story is ' Do what works for you'.

[mdzepina]

So big respect I have for Mr. Buffet not because of the enormous wealth he created, but because of his views on life in general.

[dustinmorris]

Thank you Warren and Charlie for the best and yet the cheapest financial and life education one can possibly receive. You’ve both led by example and showed the world that a rich man is much more than a number.

[YusifRefae]

Great interview! A Teenager’s Guide on how to Invest Like Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger is a great book for those who want to learn more.

[mattfavaloro]

4:42 just because you can do something does not mean you should. You could Buy a car everyday and then the next day you could sell that car and buy a new one. Just because you can doesn't mean you should

[odiggler]

The one thing I don't get about Warren Buffett, is why wait till you're dead and gone to use your money for good causes!? Why not enjoy the joy your help will bring to needy people while you're alive and able to appreciate it!

[evelynramos]

Get selling and great move in essence. On part of lost for others unfortunately. Stuff move
