Episode notes

In this episode of "Two Quants and a Financial Planner," we break down some of Warren Buffett's most important investing lessons and life wisdom through a series of interview clips and annual meeting footage. We start by discussing whether Buffett truly deserves the "GOAT" (Greatest of All Time) title in investing, drawing some interesting parallels to NFL running backs like Barry Sanders and comparing different investing legends' careers. We analyze Buffett's key principles including: His famous "circle of competence" concept and how it both helped and potentially limited him The evolution of his investing strategy from "cigar butt" value investing to quality businesses His views on margin of safety and how it varies based on business quality Why he believes his biggest mistakes were errors of omission rather than commission His advice about investing in yourself as your greatest asset The importance of having the right heroes while recognizing their imperfections What he would do if starting with $1 million today Why he advocates index investing for most people Throughout the discussion, we weave in our own perspectives and experiences, some NFL analogies (including some self-deprecating Jets fan moments), and even manage to work in references to Charles Bukowski poetry and Star Wars. We aim to make these timeless investing lessons both educational and entertaining.
