Warren Buffet, Quoted and Paraphrased

A good old friend sent me a PowerPoint file which talked about Warren Buffet. I thought that I'd share with OCN some of Mr. Buffet's philosophies, all of which apply to overclocking, in my opinion:
  • Money doesn't create man, but it is man who creates money.
  • Live your life as simply as you are.
  • Don't do what others say. Just listen to them. Do what you feel is good in your heart.
  • Don't go by brand names. Just wear those things in which you feel comfortable.
  • Don't waste your money on unnecessary things; just spend on who really are in need.
  • It's your life; why give others the chance to rule over you?
  • The happiest people do not necessarily have the best of everything. They simply appreciate what they have and what they find in their lives.

I hope someone can take heart and value from these words.
