Yes he is right about this and so many other things but there are exceptions to every rule. Some idiots with idiotic plans can create havoc.

Are we just going to pretend that stupid plans don't ruin people's lives or that the ability to improvise isn't one of the keys to success for many smart people? It's quotes like this one that demonstrate that rich people aren't brilliant sages full of deep wisdom. They're just rich.

Can? Well, a Genius without a plan can also beat an Idiot with a Plan. So he didn't really say anything. Depends on the plan.

I read that "an idiot with a plane" and I thought it was something to do with aeronautics.

what ? that makes absolutely no sense. and it seems like everyone in the comments agres, yet this post still get upvotes. Another proof the people that follow these motivational channels can't think for themselves, it's a cult almost. they just think "oh shit this is deep" it elevates them, thinking they can get far in life just because of commitment and buying these scam self help books. "how i made 10 million" yes... 9 million of those 10 were cause he sold books promising wealth to easily influenced people.

Translation: If you have a sound financial plan for your investments, these can be outperformed by someone who is just lucky. If you focus on this one idiot, you might think your plan was useless. However, for each lucky idiot without a plan, there are droves of unlucky idiots. Don't be discouraged or encouraged by one lucky idiot.

Given that the plan is actually good then yeah but then the plan was proposed by an idiot…

Warren Buffett's credibility doesn't come from just being rich. He is known for his talent in growing wealth, and he gives some solid financial advice. This meme is just a witty statement annoyingly represented as advice.

I'll argue that no plan = stupid plan by default. Planning won't prevent a stupid plan, but it sure does reduce the chance of one.

An idiot is someone that is born into wealth and spends their entire like making more and hoarding every penny. He drives the same car he had in 1955, eats McDonald’s 3x a week because they give it to him free and drinks Diet Coke because he owns the stock. He makes 700 mil per quarter on dividends doesn’t spend any of it. Some might say an idiot is someone that doesn’t know how to live.

A rich kid with a grandfather who was in congress can become wildly rich and fool people into worshiping him. Yes, Warren Buffet is a nepo baby

A rare miss for the sub if you ask me. It’s usually the most uplifting part of my day 😃
