Premium: Potency of focus – how investors can learn from the late Steve Jobs
Buffett reckons the greatest success comes from having our eggs in a single one basket and watching them closely. Steve Jobs, for sure, would have agreed.
Many of Charlie Munger's one-liners stick. Among them a reminder that "we can learn a lot from dead guys." It's normally in reference to his favourites Marcus Aurelius, Socrates, Cicero and Benjamin Franklin. But Warren Buffett's long-time business partner could also be pointing us towards Steve Jobs.
The founder and then rescuer of the $3trn giant Apple Inc died a decade back at just 56. But by then Jobs had entrenched a culture which lives on, ensuring his creation continues to flourish – and will do so long into the future. That was the true brilliance of the man.
