Enjoying it is life's best success
by Robert Charles Payne - posted E-mail Story E-mail Story | Print Story Print Story 
I have just finished reading a biography about Warren Buffet entitled "The Snowball: Warren Buffet and the Business of Life." This book was one of the most interesting reads that I have had in a long time.

This biography contains more than 900 pages, but it is a smooth read. Buffet is certainly a most unique and special individual. This story will take you into Buffet's mind and reveal to you his methods and the systems that he developed over his lifetime. By the time he was 8 years old, he had already read biographies of men such as Cornelius Vanderbilt, John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie. He read Townsend's "Bond Salesmanship"when he was 7. This book was one of the gifts that he had requested from Santa Claus.
For the full column, see Page 6A of this week's Citizen.
