ULTIMATE BUSINESSMAN
WHO IS WARREN BUFFET?
 Warren Buffett, who is known to many as the
“Oracle of Omaha”, is one of the most successful
businessmen in the world.
 He’s a self-made financial icon with a multi-billion
net worth, and his story is one that showcases more
than just the power of determination and hard
work, but also the power of focus, patience, and
taking calculated risks.
ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN CHILDHOOD

 Warren Buffett was born in 1930 in Omaha,


Nebraska. He was the son of a US congressman and a
stay-at-home mom. While his family had the means to
provide a comfortable life for him, young Warren was
driven to earn his own keep from a very young age.
 Buffett always had a knack and passion for personal
finance. One particular book entitled “One Thousand
Ways to Make $1000” attracted his attention at the
public library at the young age of seven and opened
his mind to the possibilities of making money.
BUDDING BUSINESS CAREER
 In 1956, he started his own company, Buffett
Partnership Ltd. This was a very successful venture
and he had made enough money to retire if he
would so choose.
 However, he decided to continue working because
he found it enjoyable and stimulating. In 1959, he
met Charlie Munger, who would become his
business partner for life.Together, they formed
Berkshire Hathaway Inc., which is now one of the
most successful companies in the world.
EDUCATING INVESTORS
 Throughout his career, Warren Buffett has been an outspoken
advocate of investing in quality companies for the long term.
He has taught investment principles since he was a young
stockbroker in the 50s after taking a Dale Carnegie public
speaking program.
 He has also provided one of the longest case studies on index
investing through his personal portfolio, which is now worth
over $100 billion. He did this by investing in small amounts
of various companies and holding onto them for decades to
prove that anyone can achieve financial success without
needing to know which stocks will go up or down in the short
term.
INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
 Buffett follows the Benjamin Graham school of
value investing. Value investors look for securities
with prices that are unjustifiably low based on their
intrinsic worth. There isn’t a universally-accepted
method to determine intrinsic worth but it’s most
often estimated by analyzing a company’s
fundamentals. A value investor searches for stocks
that are believed to be undervalued by the market
or that aren't recognized by the majority of other
buyers.
