Here’s the secret that makes it all connect with everyday life: Warren Buffett is horribly normal. He worries about his diet (he says “I’m one-quarter Coca-Cola”), he hates exercise, and he still uses a flip phone. He’s not some mysterious Wall Street wizard—he’s just a guy who loves reading annual reports and hates paying for a suit. The biggest unknown is maybe this: he’s probably happier than you or me, because he figured out early that money is just a tool, not a scorecard. So next time you skip the fancy coffee to save $5, just remember: Warren Buffett would approve. And then he’d invest that $5 and turn it into $50, but hey, we can’t all be him.
