			<description><![CDATA[<p>Buffett opens with a thought experiment for the students. If you could buy ten percent of one classmate's lifetime earnings, who would you pick? Not the one with the best grades, he argues, but the one whose character you'd bet on. That leads into the three qualities he hires for: intelligence, energy, and integrity, and why the third makes the other two dangerous when it's missing.</p><p>The Q&amp;A runs wide. He explains the circle of competence using the two thousand American car companies that didn't survive, and the airplane makers whose combined earnings since Kitty Hawk added up to less than nothing. He defines intrinsic value as simply the cash a business will hand you between now and judgment day, discounted properly, and traces the idea back to Aesop.</p><p>He's candid about his failures: buying Berkshire Hathaway itself, the cigar butt years, the US Air preferred, and the filling station stake he calculates has cost him billions in foregone compounding. But the costliest mistakes, he insists, never show up in any accounting. They're the opportunities he understood and sat on anyway.</p><p>Also covered: why the Dow went nowhere for seventeen years while the economy kept improving, why the Fed's brake works better than its gas pedal, how he instructs his trustees to give the money away, and the story of Rose Blumkin, who walked out of Russia in 1921, couldn't read or write, and built the largest home furnishings store in the world.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[Warren Buffett's 1978 Berkshire Hathaway shareholder letter, the first written after merging with Diversified Retailing Company. He explains why return on equity, not earnings per share, is the real measure of a good year, and lays out his case for buying small pieces of great businesses through the stock market, highlighted by a deep dive into SAFECO Corporation and his argument for "passive participation in excellent management." He also covers the strong insurance underwriting results led by National Indemnity, the struggling textile operation, the Illinois National Bank, and Associated Retail Stores under Ben Rosner. A must-listen for fans of Warren Buffett, value investing, and Berkshire Hathaway's early history.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

He walks through Berkshire's booming insurance operation, the struggling textile mills, the Illinois National Bank, and the growth of See's Candies under Blue Chip Stamps.

			<description><![CDATA[The final chapter of the Buffett Partnership, told through five letters from 1969 and 1970 as Warren Buffett wound the partnership down and returned capital to his partners. He explains why he's retiring — bargains gone, the market too speculative, his own motivation shifted — and personally recommends Bill Ruane as an alternative money manager. He walks partners through their choices: take cash, or keep their proportional stakes in his two controlled companies, Berkshire Hathaway and Diversified Retailing, which he clearly intends to hold for the long term. The episode closes with his candid case for tax-free bonds over stocks at that moment, and a plain-spoken primer on how to buy them.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

He skewers the era's collapsing "go-go" funds and the mania for minute-by-minute money management, breaks down where the year's gains came from across his four categories, and delivers the line "Price is what you pay; value is what you get" while updating his controlled companies Berkshire Hathaway and Diversified Retailing. He warns that good ideas are now at an all-time low, and closes with a nostalgic look back at the partnership's twelve-year rise from $105,000 to over $104 million.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[Warren Buffett's mid-1968 letter to partners. The partnership rose 16% while the Dow was essentially flat. He updates his growing family of controlled businesses — Berkshire Hathaway, National Indemnity, Hochschild Kohn, and Associated Cotton Shops — and their capable operators. But the heart of the letter is his warning about "The Present Environment": a speculative "chain-letter" mania fueled by "bold, imaginative accounting," which he predicts history will look back on as a bubble. He admits his own results have indirectly benefited from the frenzy even as it dries up genuine bargains, and points partners to Adam Smith's <em>The Money Game</em> for a portrait of the era.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[Warren Buffett's 1967 annual letter. The partnership gained 35.9% against the Dow's 19.0%, yet Buffett is uneasy: in a runaway speculative market where nearly every fund beat the Dow and some doubled, he warns that "we continue to eat oatmeal" rather than chase the frenzy. He breaks down a lopsided year — his worst-ever result in work-outs, a huge 72% gain in undervalued generals driven by his American Express stake (now being sold down), and steady progress in his controlled companies, where he folds in new acquisitions National Indemnity and Associated Cotton Shops. He also addresses the fallout from October's lowered goals, reassuring partners the partnership is "definitely not" winding down.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[Warren Buffett's tenth-anniversary letter, covering 1966. The partnership gained 20.4% while the Dow fell 15.6% — its widest margin ever, 36 points — capping a decade that turned $105,100 into a $54 million partnership. But Buffett strikes a cautionary note: the flood of bargain ideas that fueled the early years has slowed to a "trickle," and those results won't be repeated. He breaks down where 1966's gains came from across his four categories, defends his heavy concentration in a single dominant holding, and reaffirms that he won't chase "fashion" investing or businesses beyond his understanding.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[Warren Buffett's mid-1965 letter to partners. The partnership gained 10.4% while the Dow was essentially flat, extending its edge — though Buffett candidly notes the gain came during the market's rise, not its fall, the opposite of how he'd prefer to earn it. He revisits his "duck on a pond" point with fresh backing that mutual funds pick stocks no better than random, and explains his logic for borrowing and lending with partners at the same 6% rate. Most significant for the story ahead: he reveals he has quietly acquired a controlling interest in one of his holdings — the beginning of Berkshire Hathaway — with the full account promised for the next annual letter.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[Warren Buffett's 1964 annual letter, one of his richest. The partnership gained 27.8% against the Dow's 18.7%, but Buffett spends much of the letter on ideas: why nearly all professional money managers fail to beat an unmanaged index, and his now-famous definition of true conservatism — "intelligent hypotheses, correct facts and sound reasoning," not crowd agreement. He expands his method to four categories, adding "generals — relatively undervalued," and lays out his long-term goal of beating the Dow by about ten points a year. He also delivers a memorable case for maximizing after-tax gains rather than dodging taxes, skewering the era's "swap funds" along the way.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

			<description><![CDATA[Warren Buffett's mid-1964 letter to partners. With the Dow up about 10% in the first half, the partnership only matched it — a reminder that Buffett's edge comes in flat or falling markets, not booming ones. He reports patiently accumulating three "general" holdings where the partnership is now the largest shareholder, and delivers his memorable "duck on a pond" metaphor: most professional managers rise and fall only with the market itself. He also lays out his philosophy on measuring performance against a fixed yardstick and on paying taxes rather than distorting decisions to avoid them.<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
