    Thanks for watching! Download a free copy of Buffett’s rules of thumb here: http://longtermmindset.co/buffett

    The first rule as presented here is dead wrong. There are no businesses that have more cash and cash equivalent than short term and long term debt. Look at coca cola which is one that Buffet has held for a long time.

    I downloaded the Buffett Rules. All it is is a list of questions. No formulas at all. Useless.

    You said the company has a "debt free balance sheet" at 5:05. If that were true, then the debt to equity would be 0… $0 / equity = $0

    Have you read zero annual reports? Rule #1 is NOT true. He also didn't create the rule. It was Ben Graham. Rule #2 is NOT true either. He looks at whether the company can pay its debts off in a timely period with net income not how much debt/equity it has, and even that rule he's broken several times. Rule #3 is NOT true either. He has famously used preferred stock purchases as a funding tool, often during times of financial distress or uncertainty for the companies involved. BRK owned preferreds on GE, BAC, GS, OXY all BIG MASSIVE positions. Cities Service Preferred was BUFFETT'S first stock at 11. Rule #4 IS true, but you miss the most important calculation. Every dollar of retained should create a dollar or more of market value. Without that it's meaningless to keep. Many stocks he's bought have negative retained. Rule #5 IS true. But it's not as important to buy back stock if you can put that money into growth elsewhere more productively. It's kind of like a "well I have too much money, I have to do something with it, let's buy back our stock…" the problem is that Buffett also doesn't condone doing it at high prices, which invariable means he is agnostic to this one.

    and if you bought Chipotle after this, you'd be down 50%. 🙁

  • @lostcraver
    November 19, 2025 at 12:00 pm

    You contradict yourself by saying the Chipotle has no debt (in reality it does, as long term leases are considered as long term obligations), then a few seconds later you say they have a debt/equity ratio of 1.2

    What if balance sheets are in correct fabricated numbers

  • @jeffyeung6657
    November 23, 2025 at 8:06 pm

    I think there're tons of exceptions for number 2. For example, Apple has been buying back stocks above book value over the years. That led to equity being reduced, in some other cases, to the negative territory. Warren said there's nothing wrong with it. But again, one might have to look deeper and make a lot of exceptions to check the number 2 box.

    Good video. Please practice pronouncing "especially" correctly. And try to avoid pronouncing "str" words with SH. It's strong, not shtrong, etc.

    "Why does he have this rule of thumb in place?" What does 'in place' add to the meaning of he questions? A: nothing. Just "Why does he have this rule of thumb" says it all. The verb 'have' does all the heavy lifting.

    What company does he own that has more cash than debt?

  • @fraserhardmetal7143

    There's one fundamental thing that all these accountants, analysts, and investors omit in their take downs and predictions.

    Not one of them had the ability or the balls to create a business, a company or an enterprise. All these people are capable of is juggling other peoples money and profiting on economic downturns.

  • @tomspreadbury2915

    You Don't need Buffett to tell you this. Any accountant or Finance analyst of any kind, and most consultants in finance can tell you all of this.

    Warren doesn't want to see the company to have any preferred stock unless they're issuing it to him And him alone… On ridiculously favorable terms.

    Strane parole per uno, come BUFFETTO, che si è messo TUTTO IN TASCA: Cioè non ha dato mai una lira ai suoi azionisti e in più a goduto di un aumento stratosferico della massa monetaria MONDIALE!?

    Ai suoi azionisti, ha dato solo l'ELEMOSINA della salita del titolo, quando c'è stata e per chi ha indovinato i tempi, ma il SUCCO dei capitali l'ha ciucciato TUTTO LUI. ALLA FACCIA MOSTRA!

  • @artherrera4669

    You are totally wrong. Preferred Stock is not an hybrid between debt and equity. Preferred stocks are just stocks with other additional conditions to shareholders like additional profit during profit distribution, etc.
