Warren Buffett shares the best advice he's ever received! Yes, the financially successful guy and you'll be presently surprised!!!
"The power of unconditional love. I mean, there is no power on earth like unconditional love. And I think that if you offered that to your child, I mean you’re 90 percent of the way home. There may be days when you don’t feel like it, it’s not uncritical love, that’s a different animal, but to know you can always come back, that is huge in life. That takes you a long, long way. And I would say that every parent out there that can extend that to their child at a young age, it’s going to make for a better human being."
