Abstract: Warren Buffett the chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway had been unquestionably the most successful investor of our times. His mantra ‘Value Investing’ and ‘The power of compounding’ stood the test of time. Buffett was an early bird having started his investing career at a very young age and used the compounding effect of money to the core. His talent for investing in the right kind of shares was phenomenal. This maverick of the market had a lot to teach to those who were troubled by the vagaries of the stock market. His strategies were a must study for the potential financial pros.

Buffett’s investment philosophy, his phenomenal wealth, a comparatively frugal lifestyle, his lack of faith in the technology stocks and the dot com companies, his unflinching commitment to value investing and compounding were all guideposts for those who wanted to follow his footprints.
