Think It Over And You'll Agree With Me
#1
Marketwatch had an article about some of the nuggets from Buffet's latest letter to stockholders. Amongst it was this funny quote:

Quote:“If you’ve attended our annual meetings, you know Charlie has a wide-ranging brilliance, a prodigious memory, and some firm opinions. I’m not exactly wishy-washy myself, and we sometimes don’t agree. In 56 years, however, we’ve never had an argument. When we differ, Charlie usually ends the conversation by saying: ‘Warren, think it over and you’ll agree with me because you’re smart and I’m right."

Gave me a chuckle. Cool

That is a good one. Reminds me of a David Wilcox line that goes something like "Don't you just hate it when you're arguing with someone that you love and it's just taking them forever to realize that you're right?"

LOL.

I wouldn't recommend using this line with your significant other. Confused My wife had an interesting reply but this is a public forum so I'll let you figure it out.
