Publisher's Summary

Warren Buffett remains one of the most sought-after and watched figures in business today. He has become a billionaire and investment sage by buying chunks of companies and holding onto them, managing them as businesses, and eventually reaping huge profits for himself and investors in Berkshire Hathaway. The first two editions of The Warren Buffett Way gave investors their first in-depth look at the innovative investment and business strategies behind the spectacular success of living legend Warren E. Buffett. Tracing Warren Buffett's career from the beginning, Hagstrom told listeners exactly how, starting with an initial investment of only $100 Buffett built a business empire and has an estimated net worth of $44 billion. The Third Edition of The Warren Buffett Way will focus on the timeless principles and strategies behind Buffett's extraordinary investment success. There will be new chapters on the important distinctions between investment and trading and an examination of the most successful disciples of Warren Buffett. Some less important material will be deleted and the overall focus will be to create an edition that will stand the test of time, distilling Buffett's success formula in a way that will provide value to listeners for decades to come.

A must listen/read

An awesome listen... if you're not a numbers person (like me) it can get a bit confusing at times but overall the principles and general ideas are conveyed very well.

Keep your Notes App open while you listen or a pen and paper will do...

Insightful and lots of take away learnings

This book won’t make you rich just like a book on soccer won’t make you play in the premier league but it has definitely taught me how to be smarter with my shares and what to look for when investing in the future.
Great narration and flow.

Slow book but principles are good.

The Warren Buffett Way is a great way to invest and live your life. It was a slow book but I took the parts out that I needed.

This book will change your life - If you let it

Whenever somebody asks me "What book do you recommend for investing" this is my go to answer, which is usually met by.... But this is a story, I don't want a story I want facts... Investing is about the mind, and Warren Buffet has the greatest investing mind in the history of the world, hear his stories, understand the way he ticks... This book will ignite that investing flame within you.

For me, it was bland listening.

Factual, but monotonous in delivery.
Kind of reminded me of the teachers voice in Charlie Brown cartoons with no tonal variations.

Actually quite disappointed with this book as I anticipated so much more.

Insightful analysis - a must read to anyone wanting to know how Warren Buffet did it.

Content: This book gave me so much more than I hoped for... it calms me down to revisit Buffet's approach when my stocks are up and down and helps me remember why I bought them in the first place. Also valuable was the run through Buffet most significant investments, how he did it, the metrics and he reasoning behind each of them.
A highly educative book.

Narration: Don't be too disappointed by the slowish pace at the beginning... it improves along the way to get to the perfect pace considering the content of the book.
