DO you know who was the world’s richest man in 2008? His name is Warren Buffett and today he is the third Richest Man in the world, after Bill Gates (first) and Carlos Slim (second).
“He is the smartest stock picker in history and the wealthiest investor in the world, with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars”, writes Robert Allen in his book, Multiple Streams of Income. “What if Warren Buffett himself were to call you on the phone and give you a hot stock tip: he tells you to sink every penny into a certain stock; says that he’s invested a couple of hundred million of his own money and he feels the stock is sure bet to double or triple in value.
What would you say to him? Sorry...Would you listen to the master or continue to do things your own way?” Allen continues. Warren is so important to investing and stock market that I devoted a chapter of my book, The Billionaire Investor to him.
That chapter, entitled “World’s Greatest Investors”, lets you into the investment style of the 3rd richest man in the world.
