Warren Buffett’s investing career spanned 83 years from 1942 to 2025. He did start when he was 12, but his career started properly in 1964.
In the 61 years since then, he’s generated 5.5 million % returns, compounding at nearly 20% annually, which dramatically outperformed the index S&P500.
But probably the best thing about his long and fantastic career isn’t the money he earned, or his awe inspiring competence at stock picking, but what timeless lessons he had given us.
All we can really say is thank you, Warren, for the lessons that will outlive the returns.
