World’s greatest, most admired investment track record

“From the time that he was a youth, Warren was obsessively interested in business and investing. For a few years after Columbia Business School—he was rejected by Harvard Business School—he worked in New York for his financial idol, Benjamin Graham (the coauthor of Warren’s bible, Security Analysis). He then returned to his hometown of Omaha and not only built the world’s greatest, most admired investment track record, but did so in a unique way: with a small staff, no office computer, and no use of investment banking advisors; making quick decisions on transactions, with no competitive bidding or price negotiation, no unfriendly transactions; and with a focus on core industries at value (i.e., low) investment prices.”
