Warren Buffet on Buying Stocks

I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years.

Only buy something that you'd be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years.

Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.

- Warren Buffet, famous investor and chairman of holding company Berkshire Hathaway
