I Think You're Getting a Difference in the Long Term, Right?
In a world that's becoming increasingly short term, the real prize goes to people who are thinking more long term. Instead of going for the quick hit or looking good in the short term, it's trying to do things that are wise in the long term.

And so when Warren said that he'd protect them against the clients that level, he committed his whole balance sheet to making up for the shortfalls.
