The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do. A good human can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. To succeed, you need to find something to hold on to, something to motivate you, something to inspire you. This is exactly what Warren Buffett seems to be doing really well and really are the top 5 investment quotes by him.

 

 

1.      Don’t predict the future, prepare for it. It is not a secret that a person who tries to predict the future is either a fortune teller or a fool, although you can’t say the difference between the two. Warren Buffett’s infamous quote about this has been “Predicting rains don’t count, building arks does” this was delivered during Berkshire Hathaway’s Annual Report for 2001. 

 

 

2.    Safety has been an important aspect and it is not limited to just the investments however, it is an important principle of investment, in simple words Margin safety is the difference between the stock price and the intrinsic worth or the value and Warren Buffett lives by this principle and said “The Three most important words in investing are Margin of Safety”

 

 

 

3.    Being rational and having a mind of your own is equally important while taking any decision. Capital preservation should be the main priority for any investor and one needs to be stubborn with their money and know where the money is being placed. One of the most famous quotes by Warren Buffett has been “Rule No 1: Never lose money. Rule No 2: Never forget Rule number 1”  

 

 

 

4.    In one of the Berkshire Hathaway letter Warren Buffett said “Price is what you pay and Value is what you get.” This quote is not just applicable while investing but when you are purchasing a commodity as well. Price and value are two sides of the same coin and it’s best not to confuse between the two.

 

 

5.     Investing for the sake of it or only to get high returns isn’t what a true investor does; investing in companies that you truly believe in will have bigger returns. Instead of purely looking at the numbers, it’s important to look at the product durability and operating stability along with the internal work culture and their leaders is how one can make your money work for them. While on the same topic Warren Buffett once said “It’s far better to buy a wonderful company at a fair price than a fair company at a wonderful price”
