Warren Buffett:

A Genius and A Decent Human Being

I have loved him for decades.

I have spent many, many hours reading Warren Buffett while listening to Jimmy Buffett. . .both of them so good with words.

Every now and then, I look up that long list of quotes from Warren Buffett. Brilliant and so clearly and cleverly worded.

One of my favorite quotes though was from Charlie Munger. I heard him say it when I watched his last BRK meeting.

In the Q & A, a guy asked Charlie what advice he should give his kids.

To which Charlie replied, without hesitation, "Tell them to hold the goddamn stock."

(Forgive the swearing. It is a direct quote. I can still see Charlie saying it. It is also the reason boring, longtime value/dividend investors don't freak out easily,)
