Taxes will be one of your biggest expenses throughout your life.
Taxes are important.
Don’t ignore them.
Figure out how to save on taxes.
Within the law of course.
Why did I stay home this year?
Not because Omaha wasn't worth it.
It was.
But a great investor network doesn't need to be tied to one city, one weekend a year.
It can be built over time.
Locally.
Or online.
Through real conversations.
That's what I'm focused on now.
If that resonates with you, follow or reach out.
I would love to connect.
My feed is flooded with selfies from Omaha this weekend.
I'm not on any of them.
Why not? Let me tell you.
Here are 5 reasons NOT to go to the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting
➕ 1 strong reason you should still want to go 🧵
Spoiler: Warren Buffett is no longer a factor.
So why should you go?
One reason: if you already have a network of investors who'll be there.
Omaha is incredible when you walk in with the right people and into the right rooms.
Dinners. Side conversations. Real depth.
But you have to know where to go even before you get there.
Without that, it's an expensive weekend with strangers you'll never see again.
6. Discipline
Review. Think. Adjust.
But don't let every market move dictate your emotions.
The market does not reward impulse.
It rewards patience.
Time is still the greatest edge an investor has.
Are you investing to build wealth
or just reacting to the next headline?
You don't build wealth by reacting to every market move.
You build it through patience.
As Warren Buffett said:
“The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient.” 🧵
