On the tombstone

Here is a snippet from a conversation that Tuck graduate students had with The Sage of the Omaha - Warren Buffet

Q: After all your accomplishments, what legacy do you want to leave behind?

A: I think an example is the best thing you can leave behind. Obviously, you want to leave the right example. I mean, Wilt Chamberlain's tombstone may say, "At last, I sleep alone," and that's probably not the example you want to leave. If what I've done with Berkshire Hathaway - running a unique and independent company in true pursuit of shareholder value - persists and people learn from it to improve the way they invest and run their companies, that would be a fine legacy to leave.

Yes, let us leave an example behind ourselves........a good one.
