Time for a very short story !!
Once a 14 year old kid, who used to deliver newspapers, told his family friend that if he doesn't become a millionaire by the age of 30, he'll jump of the tallest building of his city !
Sadly, he didn't become a millionaire by 30 ! 😔

Warren Edward Buffett, also known as the "Oracle of Omaha" is the 4th richest man in the world as I'm writing this.
Born in 1930, in Omaha, USA, he went from being a newspaper delivery boy to the owner of Berkshire Hathaway, a $526 B conglomerate !

You'll be surprised to know that he didn't really had the need to deliver newspapers.
He was born in a decent middle class family but at the age of 6, he started delivering newspapers just to make some bucks !!

By the age of 17, he had earned $5000 which is equivalent to $58,000 !
That's about Rs.40,00,000, AT THE AGE OF 17, at which we were probably preparing for competition 😑
So he knew the value of compounding at a very young age !

Buffett bought his first stock at the age of 11, and made a small profit on it !
In college, he found his mentor Benjamin Graham, who is the author of 'The Intelligent Investor'. Buffett learned value investing from Benjamin Graham.

Buffett, who is one of the greatest investors of all time, is a huge proponent of Value Investing.
He believes in buying a stock for a deep discount from it's intrinsic value and holding it for as long as possible !

I can go on and on about Buffett but that won't do justice to his legend. There is a lot to learn from Buffett's life and principles.
You can search him on any platform you think of and learn about him and how he invests.
