股神巴菲特稱人生最美好的事就是沒去哈佛大學

After graduating from the University of Nebraska， Warren Buffett applied to Harvard Business School.

“They told me I was to get interviewed in a place near Chicago，” the iconic investor recounts in HBO’s “Becoming Warren Buffett”. “I got there and they interviewed me for about 10 minutes and said： ‘Forget it. You’re not going to Harvard.’”

Buffett’s first thought was， “What do I tell my dad？ This is terrible.” But， he says， “it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.”

The rejection opened the door to Columbia. Later that summer， while looking through a catalog for Columbia Business School， Buffett recognized the names of two professors： Benjamin Graham， the father of value investing， and David Dodd.

“I had read this book”Security Analysis“by the two of them， so I wrote them a letter in mid-August，” Buffett says. “I said， ‘Dear Professor Dodd. I thought you guys were dead， but now that I found out that you’re alive and teaching at Columbia， I would really like to come.’ And he admitted me.”

“Ben was this incredible teacher. He was a natural and he drew us all in，” Buffett says of Graham. “It was like learning baseball from a fellow who was batting 400. It shaped my professional life.”

It was Graham who taught him “the two rules of investing” that Buffett has lived by throughout his massively successful career.

“Rule number one： Never lose money，” Buffett says. “Rule number two： Never forget rule number one.”

在從內布拉斯加大學畢業后，沃倫·巴菲特申請了哈佛商學院。

這位投資大師在HBO的節目《成為巴菲特》中回憶道：“他們告訴我要在芝加哥附近的一個地方面試我。我去了那個地方，他們面試了我大概10分鐘，然后說：‘算了吧，你去不了哈佛。’”

當時巴菲特的第一個想法是：“我該怎么告訴我爸爸？這太可怕了?！钡撬F在卻說：“最后證明，這是發生在我身上最好的事情?！?/p>

哈佛的拒絕為他打開了一扇通往哥倫比亞大學的大門。在那個夏天稍晚一些時候，巴菲特翻閱哥倫比亞大學商學院目錄時發現了兩位教授的名字：價值投資之父本杰明·格雷厄姆和戴維·多德。

巴菲特說道：“我讀過他倆寫的《證券分析》，因此我8月中旬的時候給他們寫了一封信。我說，‘親愛的多德教授。我本以為你們倆位已經去世了，沒想到你們還活著、在哥倫比亞大學教書，我真的很想當你們的學生?！髞硭弯浫×宋摇！?/p>

巴菲特評價格雷厄姆教授時說道：“本是一個不可思議的老師。他的教學潤物無聲，使我們所有人都沉浸其中。就像跟棒球隊里一個能打400碼遠的小伙伴學習一樣。那塑造了我的職業生涯?！?/p>

巴菲特正是依靠格雷厄姆教他的“投資的兩項原則”，建立起了自己成功的事業。

巴菲特說道：“第一條原則，永遠不要虧錢。第二條原則，永遠不要忘記第一條原則?！?/p>
