Becoming Warren Buffett

I'm trying to decided if its worth the time/money to watch this new documentary on Warren Buffett, have any of you seen this? I feel like this man has been broken down and talked about more than anyone I can think of in the finance sector. There must be 5+ other documenters about him out there, most of which I've seen or skimmed through.

I personally admire what he has build out of nearly nothing, and think he's much more strategic than he portrays himself. Hence the "do as he does, not as he says" vibe around some of his advice.

“BECOMING WARREN BUFFETT,” THE MAN, NOT THE INVESTOR

What do you think monkeys? I'm curious what this forum thinks of him vs. his success...

Not sure what's there to think of his success as it speaks for itself. Im sure that a plethora of people will disagree with me and point out out how there are smarter investors or people who had more outrageous ideas or whatever, but using accumulated wealth as the measurement, he's the most successful investor ever.

I'm talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing. See my Blog & AMA
