Warren Buffett
"Don't just do something..... sit there"
Watch the interview with Warren broadcast on the 30th Sep 2011 by Charlie Rose.. I would love to give you the link but they keep moving it so you will just have to Google
** (10 years+ after I wrote this Charlie Rose was fired by PBS and others, you might still find the broadcast on youtube)
Then read 'The Making of an American Capitalist' by Rodger Lowenstein. Much better than the sometimes drifting Snowball (which is still worth reading) and quite possibly a book to change your life.
