Talking about his time as a student at Columbia University, Buffett considered the influence he created with his professors.
He said, “People who (who) generally love a young student who are really interested in this topic, and they will spend extra time with you.” “I was interested in their words, and they have a kind of entertaining that I am very interested, so I will look around what you really attracted. I will not try and no one else will become.”
