Gems from Warren Buffett - Wit and Wisdom from 34 Years of Letters to Shareholders

Rather than an investing tutorial or a life story of Warren Buffett, this volume gathers roughly 240 of the most witty and perceptive remarks drawn from three and a half decades of his yearly letters to the shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway. Taken together, the passages are meant to make readers smile while also offering practical wisdom about business and money. Through them, a portrait emerges of a chief executive widely regarded as one of the most successful and principled figures in American finance.
