Warren Buffett OKs Book of His Gems: 20% of Sales to Charity
Thanks to Matt for passing this along.
Warren Buffett has granted permission to publish “Gems from Warren Buffett - Wit and Wisdom from 34 Years of Letters to Shareholders,” a book based on 34 years of his iconic letters to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders, provided 20% of sales are donated to charity.
Author/entrepreneur Mark Gavagan wrote the entire book on spec - meaning he completed the book while having no idea whether or not he would be granted permission to use excerpts from Mr. Buffett’s letters, which are protected by copyright.
