A young upstart has a bologna sandwich lunch with Warren Buffett and decides to become a value investor.
Then he becomes a billionaire.
I later worked for that billionaire investor- Bill Oberndorf.
I was 25 at one of his few private company investments. I didn’t know what to make of a billionaire in a Mickey Mouse watch.
But Bill showed me the same generosity Buffett had shown him.
He was extremely generous to me as a young, hungry, idiotic 25 yo.
And like Bill’s experience with Buffett, it was seminal for me.
