Why is Warren Buffer so successful?

What sets Warren Buffer apart from his other contemporaries? In his own words, "The trick is to have a very long hill, which means starting very young or living … to be very old". The ‘Oracle of Omaha’ and his late partner Charlie Munger, always focussed on holding stocks for long periods to get better returns. But that can’t be the only thing that has helped him amass such an empire, that even at the age of 94, he is one of the richest and most successful people on the planet. While a lot depends on individual decision-making, some part of a person’s success also depends on the kind of literature he consumes and surrounds himself with. Genius only needs one thought or one idea to become the next thing. So while not all of us can become Warren Buffet, we can at least take notes from the books that the man himself refers to as ones that can help anyone become rich in 2025. Here are 5 books that one can read in 2025 to accumulate wealth and get rich. Image Source: X/@WarrenBuffet
