“Over the years I’ve developed a better understanding of human nature. I can learn a lot about investments out of a book. But I don’t think you can learn as much about human beings. You really need some experiences, and I’m wiser in that respect than I was 40 or 50 years ago, even though I can’t rattle off numbers the same way I used to be able to,” Warren Buffett to Kunhardt.
Warren Buffett film is equal parts love story and business story – a 90-minute account of Buffett’s progress from a child counting pop bottle caps to a man with a fortune of $100 billion-plus (most of it will go to charity).
