3 Qualities You'll Need If You Want to Invest Like Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett, the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B), started investing when he was 11 years old in 1941. And since then, he has become one of the greatest investors of all time.

Whether you're a fan of Buffett or not, chances are you have different investors that you look up to. Adults and children are similar in that we both try and emulate our role models in the hopes of becoming more like them.

C.S. Lewis put it well when he wrote that "very often the only way to get a quality, in reality, is to start behaving as if you had it already. That is why children's games are so important. They are always pretending to be grown-ups -- playing soldiers, playing shop. But all the time, they are hardening their muscles and sharpening their wits so that the pretense of being grown-up helps them grow up in earnest."
