One clip making the rounds comes from a 1985 interview, when Buffett was asked about the most important quality that an investor can have.

“It’s the temperamental quality, not an intellectual quality. You don’t need tons of IQ in this business … you do not have to be able to play three-dimensional chess,” he said. “You need a stable personality. You need a temperament that neither derives great pleasure from being with the crowd, or against the crowd.

“This is not a business where you take polls; it’s a business where you think,” he added. Watch it below.
