Question : You seem to be so well read, tell us how it started?
Warren Buffet : My father was a stock broker, so we had all these financial books in our library, he introduced me to those classics & i got into them, I am lucky that my father was not a fan of Playboy. Reading is the best habit you can get. Well, you can learn from teachers too, and have mentors but there are so many constraints attached - they will talk fast, talk slow, the might talk like a pro or they might be terribel communicators. Books are really different animal altogether, i love reading! The beauty about reading & learning is that the mroe you learn the more you want to learn.
