I thought this book was worth the read and had some good insights. While I don't believe in the entitlement mentality, Buffett made one of the best arguments I've heard for the redistribution of wealth. He believes that society creates the environment where certain talents have more value. Those same talents in a different society could be worthless (i.e. being good at basketball can make you lots of money, but being a good teacher or nurse doesn't give you that same money potential in our current society). Following this train of thought, the society that makes a certain talent valuable has some ownership in that value.

Here's a portion of a Buffett quote that was further expanded in this book:

Take me as an example. I happen to have a talent for allocating capital. But my ability to use that talent is completely dependent on the society I was born into. If I'd been born into a tribe of hunters, this talent of mine would be pretty worthless. I can't run very fast. I'm not particularly strong. I'd probably end up as some wild animal's dinner.

Interesting intro to Warren

Really great book, summarizing Warren Buffet's principles in investing and in life.

A great compilation of Warren-isms, presented clearly for all to understand. Like Warren himself, the book is plain spoken and covers a myriad of topics. This book is easy to pick up at almost any point. I feel like I learned some very helpful investing, as well as, life lessons.

Meh...there are better books on Buffett. Try The Snowball.

I love Janet Lowe, and this is an inspirational book of quotations, they are the basis of my research that I did for "13 Habits that made me Billions" series of books to help empower kids to make the world a better place.

Decent primer on Buffet-isms.

Above average book on Warren Buffett.

well articulated, decently penned, Thanks to Janet Celesta Lowe,
I recommend this book to all those people who wish to work towards understanding Buffet's Investment fashion and his general perspective about living life in a less fussy and more productive manner,

At times amusing ... at times simply impressive. And I suppose at times he sounds like an ass... but the topics are interesting - a fair amount about investing toward the end, but also there is wisdom about life. "Working at a job you don't like is like marrying for money." :)

Was an easy read, though maybe not terribly memorable in the Buffettology fray. Author fawned over Buffett and Munger - I guess understandable, but those parts were not great return on investment.

"read" it via audio book version. Liked the book in parts but loved the man Warren Buffet is by the end of this book.
