40 sats \ 10 replies \ @metadavid OP 3 May \ parent \ on: Warren Buffets shocks with announcement to retire this year news

One of the best ever. I think it’s hard to say anyone is the best ever since investing has been around as long as time. The trend for much of the post 1980s was to invest small cap growth and he bucked the trend by going large cap value, and it worked.

His genius is the ability to sit still in the room and watch compounding do its magic.
