On the weekend three weeks ago, the global attention was concentrated in the UK, watching King Charles waiting for 74 years of coronation ceremony.However, in the small town in central United States, another event attracted 40,000 people to gather, and many people were waiting in the early morning.When the gate opened, the 70s classic "Money" of the 70s of the British Rock Band Pink Floyd came from the speaker.The attendees were like investing full of coins, pouring into the venue "fluttering".
This is the Berkshire Shareholders Conference, known as the "annual event in the investment industry".In May of each year, in addition to the two years of interruption of the epidemic period, investors came from all over the world to go to Omaha pilgrimage, and scrambled to understand the "stock god" Buffett's insights on the current economy, investment and the big era.Unlike other shareholders' conferences, the report usually ends in five minutes. The marathon -style open question and answer session is the highlight.
This year, Buffett and his old partner Charlie Munger have been 192 years old, but they are glowing and answered 48 questions in five and a half hours.In addition to local shareholders of the United States, overseas investors from Singapore, Mainland China, Hong Kong and other places also seized the opportunity to ask valuable questions.The problem is widely, from China and the United States Games, Japan, Japan, reduced holdings of TSMC, de -US dollar, bank mines, artificial intelligence, etc. The answers of the two olds are always handy.
Half of the conference, a shareholder from Canada raised a problem that was unexpected, but made.He asked Munger's previous public preferences: "I would rather choose an IQ 130, but people who think that IQ 120 should not choose a IQ 150, but think that IQ 170 is referring to Musk.He wondered, did the two olds change to Musk?
Compared with the preparation of other questions, Buffett considered it.Munger bluntly said that Musk did overestimate himself.
But the two old still affirmed that he was a "very outstanding entrepreneur". He transformed it into reality through his enthusiastic pursuit and impossible tasks.It is just for Buffett and Munger, this life will be tortured, and they prefer to do something easy to complete, "do not want to fail so many times."
What is the simple thing in Buffett's eyes?
This time, he directly recommended a documentary that he watched two times to open each page (Turn Every Page): "When I read a book, I turned it over every page ... I read all Moody's book books., Thousands of businesses. No matter what you do, you have to look at each page and find what you are looking for. "
Coincidentally, when Musk was elected in the past year, when he was an interview with the characters, he talked about Buffett's way of working: "He is sitting there every day, reading various annual reports, so boring! Who would like to do this kind of work?? I don't want to. "
But last month, with the upper limit of the US debt, Musk publicly mentioned Buffett, saying that he had the ability to take over Yellen as the US Finance Minister, because "he only used only one week a week, he could not use one week less than one a weekThis job can be done in hours. "
The heroes see different, and the Tao is different, but they never follow others blindly, fully understand their own advantages and passion, and do not judge these two points with rigidity and narrowness and single quasi -rope.People are actually very similar.
Fortunately, the road to success is not limited to one kind of person. People who are unbelievable are not afraid of difficulties. Even if only one of the ten things succeed, it can bring breakthroughs and innovation.Those who focus on doing one thing throughout their lives, pursue excellence and continuous improvement, can make things to the extreme.
Leaving aside whether his ability is available, choose to be Buffett or Musk has no standard answer.The important thing is to choose the road and make yourself based on personality, interests and goals.At the same time, there should be sufficient space for the external environment to allow different types of people to perform diversified talents and create greater value and achievements through complementary.
Because we need not only need to invest coins in full, but we also need to be brave to break people who create new things.
