Warren Buffett Watch

What does Warren Buffett think is the most powerful force in the universe?  It's certainly not money.  Here's what he told a group of 98 Harvard students who went to Omaha over the weekend "in search of business wisdom," as reported this morning by the Harvard Crimson:

"Unconditional love is the most powerful force in the universe.  I got unconditional love from my parents...and I’ve been blessed in that I love what I’m doing so much that I have no desire to get away. I’m playing in my playground and I don’t let the world decide my schedule.”

Buffett also told the Massachusetts "pilgrims" that when it comes to investing, you don't need to be smart, but you do need the ability to think for yourself.  "Institutions get caught up in fads, [and] you have to keep your own scorecard."
