Buffett's Latest Advice

In today's podcast, Scott Keefer looks at recent comments made by Warren Buffett to a group of 150 Wharton business students.

In the podcast Scott looks at the advice Buffett, arguably the world's most successful investor, has for investors. In particular it suggests that non-professional investors should use index funds and buy into these over time. Not to try to time markets or pick individual stock winners. Buffett concludes his comments by stating that the only way an investor can get killed is by high fees or trying to outsmart the market.
