About the Book "This book will examine the investments and philosophies of Warren Buffett through an entrepreneurship lens. While there are many books analyzing Buffett's investments, philosophies, and beyond, none quite focus on the entrepreneurial aspects of his work. It will draw on his personal statements, shareholder letters, books, interviews with investors and authors of Buffett books, interviews with finance professionals, and the author's analysis of the above. The author covers Buffett's early entrepreneurial efforts, investment ideals, and personal philosophy with an eye towards not only educating the next generation of investors (who regularly look to Buffett) but the next generation of entrepreneurs as well"-- Book Synopsis Warren Buffett is perhaps the most accomplished investor of all time. The CEO and chair of Berkshire Hathaway has earned admiration for not only his financial feats but also the philosophy behind them. Todd A. Finkle provides striking new insights into Buffett's career through the lens of entrepreneurship. This book demonstrates that although Buffett is thought of primarily as an investor, one of the secrets to his success has been running Berkshire as an entrepreneur. Finkle--a Buffett family friend--shares his perspective on Buffett's early life and business ventures. The book traces the entrepreneurial paths that shaped Buffett's career, from selling gum door-to-door during childhood to forming Berkshire Hathaway and developing it into a global conglomerate through the imaginative deployment of financial instruments and creative deal making. Finkle considers Buffett's investment methodology, management strategy, and personal philosophy on building a rewarding life in terms of entrepreneurship. He also zeros in on Buffett's longtime business partner, Charlie Munger, and his contributions to Berkshire's success. Finkle draws key lessons from Buffett's mistakes as well as his successes, using these failures to explore the ways behavioral biases can affect investors and how to overcome them. By viewing Buffett as an entrepreneur, this book offers readers a fresh take on one of the world's best-known financial titans. Review Quotes Finkle explains how Warren Buffett did it--and does it--in words that the average person (and the financial expert) can understand. It's a biography with a bonus: details about Buffett's 'secret sauce, ' which, as he says, almost guarantees that you can get rich--slowly.--Steve Jordon, author of The Oracle & Omaha: How Warren Buffett And His Hometown Shaped Each Other and former reporter and "Warren Watch" columnist, The Omaha World-Herald Finkle's portrait of Warren Buffett--as entrepreneur, investor, and businessperson--is a masterpiece.
