Woah!! Way too premature to compare Zuckerberg and his singular 10 year old successful company to Buffett, who's been above and beyond in successfully running dozens of businesses for 50+ years. For the sports comparison, it'd be like comparing Kevin Durant to Michael Jordan (or Neymar to Pele for the European readers). Potential is there - yes. Too early to make a good comparison - yes.
- ghx 13y agoExactly. A lot of players have one great year, it's the ones with consistent careers that stick out. Also, Zuckerberg's recent purchases seem more like defensive measures than investments. Seems more like Gates than Buffett.
- jtfrench 13y agoWarren Buffet runs an office with about 24 people, managing over $182B in revenue, $480B+ in assets, and filing 900+ page tax return annually. That is efficiency beyond anything I've seen anyone do, period. Mark Z is certainly leveraging his position and wealth, but I wouldn't call him a Buffet yet.
