However, his incredible success and the epic scope of his acquisitions can make him an intimidating mentor. But just because most investors can't afford to buy companies like GEICO and See's Candies outright doesn't mean that you can't apply and benefit from the same rules and strategies that Buffett has successfully employed for decades.
