The Tao of Warren Buffett: Warren Buffett's Words of Wisdom: Quotations and Interpretations to Help Guide You to Billionaire Wealth and Enlightened Business Management (1)

I was able to understand Buffett better. Must read for value investors. Highly recommend this book of you want to invest in stocks.

I am no money genius. In fact, only recently (I'm 32 y/o) have I come into saving and making things work in my favor through my career and money choices but this is a great addition to any reading and advice you might be getting from other sources. It provides powerful tidbits of insight into business and money management. I loved it so much I bought it for someone else who loves Warren Buffet books as much as I do and she loves it too!

Arguably the greatest investor in modern times, these snippets from shareholder's meetings & interviews show that Warren Buffet is a very wise man & his investing wisdom can be applied to life in general. For example, he says, " “You can’t make a good deal with a bad person.”A bad person is a bad person, and a bad person will never make you a good deal. The world is filled with enough good and honest people that doing business with the dishonest ones is pure foolishness. The rule is simple: People with integrity are predisposed to perform; people without integrity are predisposed not to perform. It is best not to get the two confused. " And Buffet has such a wonderfully accessible & epigrammatic way of articulating his wisdom. For instance, " You should invest like a Catholic marries ---> for life... " “....I look for businesses in which I think I can predict what they’re going to look like in ten to fifteen years’ time. Take Wrigley’s chewing gum. I don’t think the Internet is going to change how people chew gum.” ..... “Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.” Also, Buffet is often objectively funny. Like he began sharing his background by saying, “I made my first investment at age eleven. I was wasting my life up until then.” This book is itself is a great investement offerring a wealth of wisdom.

This book is fantastic. I can't say enough about it!! Each page has a sentence from Warren Buffett, then a couple of paragraphs explaining the statement, which is written by Mary Buffett. I have learned so much & have highlighted & underlined many pages! For me, it is not a book to just read through, I read a page or 2 or 3 & then put it down & really think about what I read. I would highly recommend it!

Belongs on every serious investors book self!! Financial Statement Analysis: A Practitioner's Guide, 3rd Edition

This book is written is a way that makes you think about your approach in business.

I have one grouse against authors who write about Mr Buffet - "Buy great companies at reasonable prices" they all say. Until then just sit on the sidelines. If I waited to buy shares of great businesses at reasonable prices I would die of old age before I got a chance. I live in India and the share prices of great companies like Colgate, Nestle, Unilever etc etc ( the sort that Warren Buffet loves) almost never fall below 40 times earnings. But even purchased at these inflated levels they prove to be fabulous wealth creators. Mr Buffet also never invests in technology stocks because he does not understand them and their future is uncertain. Here I think that Mr Buffet is wrong. Many leading Software companies have great ROC and ROA. They are awash with cash. Infosys has six billion dollars in reserves and not one dollar of debt. How's that for wealth creation. Senior citizens will be happy to note that in his world of investing you are only taken seriously after you hit 65 years of age and have at least four decades of investing experience under your belt. Just shows what high standards the man lives by.

I've been investing and trading stocks for many years and I do agree that we all could learn a lot about investing and patience from this man. This book does however state some very obvious advice but does add enough value to make it worth your time reading. The beginning of the book really focuses on some questionable advice that is perfect with 20/20 hindsight but as the book progresses it touches on what real investing is about.. buying companies, not stocks. In summary, this short book can really help you recenter yourself to what you should be looking for in an investment to passively grow your wealth.

TAO of Warren Buffet is very famous book. It is an inspiration for investment beginners. Nicely written & easy to understand.

There are many valuable hints even for ordinary investors. You can learn how to avoid foolish mistakes when investing (or not investing). But being successful like Buffett is not that easy. He was lucky, as well as diligent, careful and thoughtful. If someone became too positive about his investment by reading this book, it would be ironical.

Un petit livre sur le grand Warren, qui peut servir d'introduction à la pensée de l'oracle d'Omaha. Bien sûr on pourrait en dire beaucoup plus sur ce personnage, mais ce livre a l'avantage d'être très agréable à lire, il ne nécessite pas de bonnes connaissances de financier ou d'investisseur. Il constitue une bonne introduction ou une bonne conclusion (c'est selon) à propos du phénomène Warren. A recommander particulièrement pour tous ceux qui ne connaissent pas bien Warren et qui le découvriront ainsi de manière ludique et sympathique.

Love this man. Wisdom that can be applied to your daily life.
