Warren Buffet of Berkshire Hathaway and His Investment Strategy Warren Buffet is arguably the most successful investor of all time. His initial investment of $105,000 in the beginning ultimately grew into a $16 billion dollar fortune made from his trading company, Berkshire Hathaway. If you had invested $10,000 in Berkshire Hathaway when he took over the company in 1965, it would be worth $22,000,000 today. Warren s stockpicking prowess however, is what he is know for and is also why Berkshire Hathaway has had a returning average of 24% a year for the last three decades. At the age of 69 he is one of the richest men alive, with a net worth of over $27,265,000,000.00, placed only second to Bill Gates. Since Warren has never explicitly stated his strategy, nor has he ever written a book on it, these strategies have been gathered from the Berkshire Hathaway annual reports and interpreted by authors such as Robert Hagstrom, Roger Lewenstein, and Andrew Kilpatrick.
