How to Money · Friday, July 10, 2026
In his later years, Warren Buffett emphasizes that true success in life is measured by the love one receives from others, not by financial wealth. He states that having a large bank account is irrelevant if no one genuinely cares for you. This perspective highlights the importance of relationships and human connection over material accumulation.
“When you get to my age, you'll really measure your success in life by how many of the people you want to have love you actually do love you.”
“I know people who have a lot of money and they get testimonial dinners and they get hospital wings named after them, But the truth is that nobody in the world loves them.”
“If you get to my age in life and nobody thinks well of you, I don't care how big your bank account is, life is a disaster.”
