第一章 The Master of Investment: Warren Buffett
·Alfred ·
For someone who is such an extraordinarily successful investor,Warren Buffett comes off as a pretty ordinary guy. Born and bred in Omaha,Nebraska,for more than 40 years Buffett has lived in the same gray stucco house on Farnam Street that he bought for $31,500. He wears rumpled,nondescript suits,drives his own car,drinks Cherry Coke,and is more likely to be found in a Dairy Queen than a four-star restaurant.
But the 68-year-old Omaha native has led an extraordinary life. Looking back on his childhood,one can see the budding of a savvy businessman. Warren Edward Buffett was born on August 30,1930,the middle child of three. His father,Howard Buffett,came from a family of grocers but himself became a stockbroker and later a U. S. congressman.
Even as a young child,Buffett was pretty serious about making money. He used to go door-to-door and sell soda pop. He and a friend used math to develop a system for picking winners in horseracing and started selling their“Stable-Boy Selections”tip sheets until they were shut down for not having a license. Later,he also worked at his grandfather’s grocery store. At the ripe age of 11,Buffett bought his first stock.
