Men who can be right and sit tight are uncommon. I found it the hardest thing to learn. But it is only after an investor has firmly grasped this that he can make big money. It is literally true that millions came easier to a trader after he knows how to trade then hundreds came in the days of his ignorance.- Jesse Livermore

"You need a different checklist and different mental models for different companies. I can never make it easy by saying, 'Here are three things' You have to derive it yourself to ingrain it in your head for the rest of your life."---Charlie Munger on Investing models

I’ve heard Warren say since very early in his life that the difference between a good business and a bad one is that a good business throws up one easy decision after another, whereas a bad one gives you horrible choices—decisions that are extremely hard to make. For example, it’s not hard for us to decide whether or not we want
to open a See’s store in a new shopping center in California. It’s going to succeed.---Charlie Munger
