We are almost done with 2023!! Here are some of the best quotes from famous investors to start your 2024 finances off in style 🙂
1. WARREN BUFFET
If you’re buying a farm, if you’re buying an interest in a local business, if you’re buying — a building to rent in Omaha to people — you shouldn’t be looking at the next six months and trying to decide whether now is the right time to buy. You need to look at what the asset is likely to produce over time and what you need to pay for it. And if you can buy it cheaper, all the better… It’s crazy trying to time the actions.
2. PETER LYNCH
If you’re ready to invest in a business, you should be able to explain why in simple language that a fifth grader could understand, and quickly enough that the fifth grader won’t get bored.
3. ROBERT G ALLEN
Don’t be swayed by the opinions of the average person. Dream, and he thinks you’re crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you’re lucky.
4. JIM CRAMER

9. JOHN MAYNARD KEYNES
In the long run, we are all dead.
