My luck was accentuated by my living in a market system that sometimes produces distorted results, though overall it serves our country well... I’ve worked in an economy that rewards someone who saves the lives of others on a battlefield with a medal, rewards a great teacher with thank-you notes from parents, but rewards those who can detect the mispricing of securities with sums reaching into the billions. In short, fate’s distribution of long straws is wildly capricious.”
. (Buffett W, 2010) If a man would write a good book, preach a better sermon, make a better mouse trap, than his neighbors, though his house is in the wood, the world will make beaten paths to his door-
