21 Interesting Quotes by Warren Buffett



Warren Edward Buffett, the third richest person in the world, was born on August 30, 1930 to his father Howard, a stockbroker-turned-Congressman.

At only six years old, Buffett purchased 6-packs of Coca Cola from his grandfather's grocery store for twenty five cents and resold each of the bottles for a five cent profit.

 At eleven years old, he purchased three shares of Cities Service Preferred at $38 per share. Shortly after buying the stock, it fell to just over $27 per share. Warren held his shares until they rebounded to $40. Surprisingly, Cities Service shot up to $200. This experience taught him one of the basic lessons of investing: “Patience is a virtue.”

 He has donated a total of $25 billion to charities. Buffett has pledged to give away 99 percent of his wealth rather than pass it down as an inheritance.

Warren Buffett is the legend in his areas of work.
From this article, I want to share few of the unique quotes made by Warren Buffett.
