ANECDOTE

How Buffett Found Robert

  • Robert discovered Buffett by reading a Berkshire Hathaway annual letter during stockbroker training and it changed his career direction overnight.
  • That white-paper on Buffett became the genesis for The Warren Buffett Way and launched his writing career.
INSIGHT

Think Like A Business Owner

  • Buffett thinks like a business owner not a stock trader, and that lens changes every investment decision.
  • Purposeful detachment from the market is a central competitive advantage for Buffett.
ADVICE

Report Public Stocks Like Private Equity

  • Do judge public stocks like private equity by tracking revenues, margins, cash and economic returns rather than short-term price moves.
  • If the business-driven metrics satisfy you, ignore noise and hold for long-term compounding.
