Not a very nuanced response from Warren Buffett here. He seems to be talking end game but we are no where near that point. People have been trying it Buffett's way for some time and not getting any results. That tells us one thing. Passion is missing and that is what Warren brings - not anger. Getting the base involved is critical and that is where Warren is at right now. You go girl!
