Buffett说伯克希尔公司每年都有很多资金像潮水般涌来,为了把这些资金运用出去,他必须努力寻找好的公司进行收购。为此,他还要放弃那些老鼠般的小目标,而把精力放在那些大象级的大企业收购上。为了描述他这种寻找好的收购对象的心情和理念,Buffett向投资者讲述了一个笑话:忘掉老伴、寻找靓女。
Our
exemplar is the older man who crashed his grocery cart into that of
a much younger fellow while both were shopping. The elderly man
explained apologetically that he had lost track of his wife and was
preoccupied searching for her. His new acquaintance said that by
coincidence his wife had also wandered off and suggested that it
might be more efficient if they jointly looked for the two women.
Agreeing, the older man asked his new companion what his wife
looked like. With a gorgeous blonde, the fellow answered, with a
body that would cause a bishop to go through a stained glass
window, and she is wearing tight white shorts. How about yours? The
senior citizen wasted no words: Forget her, we’ll look for
yours.
If you have an acquisition candidate that fits, call me day or
night. And then watch me shatter a stained glass window.
