We’re glad to have you back with us! We’re going to be discussing that most impressive giant of stocks, the unstoppable colossus of investment fortune, the shining avatar of unbelievable success, Warren Buffett.
To get gets started, we’re going to strip him of his halo. Warren Buffett is just your average man. Nobody intrinsically special, he’s basically like you or us in that he’s a human being doing his best to make good decisions in this crazy but wonderful global economy.
“How can you say that!?! Look at his successful portfolio!!”, you may be exclaiming right now. It’s easy. Buffett is an average man, yes. Which is both true and an absurd claim to make. Is that even possible? Most definitely. As an ordinary human being, Warren Buffett put forth the hard work and patience necessary to become extraordinary by believing in common sense.
Warren Buffett – How To Read Stocks
Called the Oracle of Omaha, there’s no mystical soothsaying with this man. He doesn’t deal with advanced scientific systems, or highly complex abstract numerical formulas. Not one to cloud his vision with smoke and mirrors, Warren Buffett made a sage out of himself by paying attention to basic human nature and mustering the unbreakable willingness to pursue a very simple and mundane path for investment potential.
Most investors today buy into all sorts of incredible investment contraptions, hoping to capitalize quickly due to high-risk payoffs. There are so many investment methods and stock pursuit options, it can make your head dizzy!

Warren Buffet is a super role model precisely for the reasons mentioned above – he put in the hardwork and patience to achieve his outstanding success.
He is even more admirable as he has teamed up with Bill and Melissa Gates to use his money to help others live a better life
Warren Buffet is one of a kind.
He may be an ordinary man but he is an extra, extraordinary thinker and strategist.
We can’t have his brain but we can be guided by what he does and how he does it.

Hi Sean,
I’m really looking forward to reading your series on Warren Buffet. He seems like an amazing man and I love listening to what he has to say. I like how you say he’s an ordinary man who worked hard to become extraordinary.
I find it incredible that he relies on his own good judgment and not any sort of fancy analysis to work out which stocks to pick.
