沃伦·巴非特名言: I bought a company in the mid-’90s called Dexter Shoe…

“I bought a company in the mid-’90s called Dexter Shoe and paid $400 million for it. And it went to zero. And I gave about $400 million worth of Berkshire stock, which is probably now worth $400 billion. But I’ve made lots of dumb decisions. That’s part of the game.”

— Warren Buffett

“90年代中期,我以4亿美元的代价收购了一家名为“Dexter Shoe”的公司,最后这家公司一文不名。当时我支付了总值约4亿美元的伯克希尔股票,如今可能价值4000亿。我的确做过很多愚蠢的决定,但犯错是金钱游戏的一部分。”

— 沃伦·巴非特

Will解读:连股神巴菲特也会犯错,而且犯的是愚蠢的错误,何况你我凡人。所以,不必过多纠结于曾经犯下的错误,重要的是从中汲取经验并总结教训,下一次远离错误。当你犯的错越来越少时,就会离成功越来越近。
