Warren Buffett net worth vs Elon Musk
Warren Buffett: The Oracle of Omaha
Today I will explain Warren Buffett versus Elon Musk. There are differences in their investment perspectives. What this can teach us about investing in the world of innovation.
If you’re interested in learning how to make money in both bull and bear markets. If you want to see what I’m trading or investing in, be sure to hit that subscribe button. So, obviously, we’ve had the news that Elon Musk just surpassed Warren Buffett in terms of his net worth.
Now, some of this is because Buffett’s been giving away his money, obviously. But I thought it’d be interesting to kind of move beyond the headlines. Then, really think about how Elon Musk and Warren Buffett approach the world and investing versus Warren Buffett.
Warren Buffett is better than Elon Musk
So I would say that Musk is obviously an innovator, one of our great inventors. He’s into solving really hard problems and pushing the frontiers of human knowledge. Warren Buffett, I would argue, is the exact opposite; he likes that he developed this idea of the investment mode. Which he, I believe, got from Ben.
Graham Buffett talks about using investment modes as a way of protecting the company, ensuring that it can stifle competition and innovation, so where Musk is really moving us towards the future, Buffett has been all about preserving the status quo and sort of rent-seeking and milking an existing customer base.
Elon Musk, I love this tweet: Open your eyes; look up to the skies. One of his really, really great ones is trying to get people to Mars by 2025. He is really, really a visionary, and then on the other side, you have Buffett and the sort of role model he is always talking about, Cherry Coke, and if you look at his portfolio, it’s really shocking how much of it is addictive garbage junk food, everything from Kraft Heinz.
How did Musk make Warren Buffett rich?
So, Musk is clearly a major innovator. Now, obviously, I grew up eating all this stuff as a kid at KG. I like to eat it, but this is definitely stuff that holds humanity back. I mean, spreading Coca-Cola all over the world has made Buffett very rich.
But it’s also created a huge amount of diabetes, especially in emerging markets, and I think Buffett has this; he has this very nice public image, very grandfatherly, but when you really dig down and you see what he does and what he invests in, I think it’s—I think it’s disturbing actually. You can go back and read this; it’s a link to this.
This is a famous Charlie Munger talk where he talks about how to create a trillion-dollar company; he’s basically talking about Coca-Cola, but he talks about how you need to include sugar, caffeine, and salt and make it really addictive and have it spread all over the world.
Warren Buffett investments
You created it with no aftertaste, and so people will drink more of it. It’s brilliant. Munger’s a brilliant guy. Buffett’s a brilliant guy, but when you read this in the context of modern addiction and everything like that, it’s actually quite disturbing, so I’ll link to that.
It’s definitely worth reading, though; his Munger talks about the famous Lollapalooza effect in here on the other side of some of Buffett’s investments; he sold off some of these. He’s turned against Goldman Sachs. Buffett’s investing in the big US banks is really the opposite of innovation.
These are giant rent-seeking corporations that use their power and their government sanction to keep down rivals. This is a great meme. I don’t always go to the bank; when I do, I avoid Wells Fargo, which is sort of Buffett’s longest and most famous bank holding, perhaps.
Warren Buffett, opposite to Elon Musk
Wells Fargo has just a tremendous amount of power; here’s a recent story telling clients they need to have a million dollars in balances to do a jumbo mortgage refi. This is obviously a sign of the amount of competition that’s in this market.
Buffett has been a large holder of Moody’s, which is a bond rating agency, since before the financial crisis, and Moody’s was one of the real contributors to the great financial crisis.
Everything crashed. Buffett got in on a lot of sweetheart deals during the great financial crisis of 2008 and 2009, and he’s really famous for never having criticized Moody’s for what they did in terms of rating risky bonds.
Warren Buffett clean image
As it’s not risky, I’ll give you one simple example of a big established company: Coke, obviously an iconic Buffett holding, and their idea of innovation versus what real innovation looks like. Here’s a story from late last year: Coke is launching a new sparkling water brand called Eh-eh.
Obviously, their market share has been—Coke’s market share has been falling a lot over the last 20 years as people moved to sort of healthier beverages, but here’s Coke’s idea of innovation: sparkling water.
with caffeine, of course, to make it addictive when you compare it to all these. This real flourishing of innovative products that we have now, particularly in, I would say, probably particularly in the US, is a company called DRAM, DRAM Apothecary.
Warren Buffett – biggest stockholder
I’ve had their beverages, and they’re just amazing. Here is one that is adaptogenic: CBD sparkling water with silver ear mushroom, moringa leaf, and bilberry. Really cool stuff like this, as opposed to it, is much more difficult, especially when you have an investment.
I like this mode to really think outside the box. You’ve been so protected for so many years, and this is sort of the difference. If Eli were the head of a soda company, he would, I think, do something more like DRAM than Coke.
If you look at Buffett’s biggest stock holdings here, these are the largest. He obviously has private companies and private subsidiaries of Berkshire Hathaway, but if you just look at this, it boggles the mind if you were worth hundreds of millions or billions of dollars and you woke up in the 20th century holding things like Bank of America and Delta Airlines; he’s obviously since dumped the airlines.
Warren Buffett owns Apple and Amazon
JP Morgan, Moody’s, and US Bank Corp. are companies that have a real stranglehold, and perhaps it’s a warning for all of us that Buffett also owns Apple and Amazon.
If he didn’t, if he didn’t hope these, he would have fallen much, much further behind the SP500 than he has, but it may give you insight into Apple and Amazon’s monopoly powers. Buffett likes investing in companies that are anti-innovation and that swallow up and prevent new competitors from entering the landscape, so obviously, that includes Apple and Amazon, as we said.
likes investing in companies that are anti-innovation and that swallow up and prevent new competitors from entering the landscape, so obviously, own Apple and Amazon, as we said.
Involvement in money laundering?
I’ll link to the list of Wells Fargo scandals. The extremely long JPMorgan scandals are really long; here’s a story about how they owned a ship containing 20 tons of cocaine.
Companies implicated in money laundering for many years, laundering drug money, laundering terror terrorism money, and just not very nice companies in my opinion.
Finally, we’ll finish with Buffett on his views on money, gold, and Bitcoin, and here, he’s definitely a fan of the Fiat system. We’re very, very anti-gold. This is a famous article from Fortune from 2012 where he talks about how he likes stocks so much more than gold and bonds, and this would make sense from someone who owns so many of the big banks and is so invested in the Fiat system.
Illegal Purchase of Gold and Bitcoin?
But if you look at how Berkshire Hathaway, which is Buffett’s company, obviously is a conglomerate, his holding company, Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway has, at this point, gold has been underperforming for most of the last 20 years; here’s the chart.
The red is gold, the actual precious metal of the commodity, and the blue line is Berkshire Hathaway. It’s quite ironic that he’s actually underperforming gold over this whole time period.
If you compare Berkshire Hathaway to Bitcoin, I probably should have used a logarithmic chart here, but you can see Bitcoin’s up something like 7,000 percent over this time horizon.
How did Buffett hurt people?
I believe I have only been going back as far as 2013 and obviously Berkshire. It’s kind of an unfair comparison because Bitcoin is very small or started off as a very small company—I mean, a very small new currency—and Berkshire Hathaway is obviously much bigger with slower growth rates.
But I just find it ironic that someone who attacks that gold and attacks Bitcoin would have just massively underperformed them and continue to underperform them. Munger is also not a fan of Bitcoin, saying that it’s disgusting that people buy Bitcoin.
Munger and Buffett are the kind of people who want you locked into the fiat system so they can continue to charge you crazy fees like Wells Fargo does, and what’s ironic is most of these bank fees obviously hurt working-class and middle-class people more than they hurt upper-class account holders.
Buffett is a dinosaur
So one of the great ironies is that I would suggest that history is probably going to judge Buffett a little bit more harshly than his contemporaries have. Here’s a great Buffett’s famous saying that I think of what Munger said: Well, the Bitcoin is rat poison, rat poison squared, and fear here.
I think Buffett really is a dinosaur. This is a great image of magic internet money, Bitcoin, as the meteor, the comet that destroyed the dinosaurs, and here we have all these legacy currencies like the Canadian dollar, the euro, the Australian dollar, and the US dollar. Then, Warren Buffett is here on the left as one of the dinosaurs.
If you found this video helpful and you really want a less superficial or fun version of it. I have a much longer video on why value investing is dead and why it has stopped working since 2009.
If you really want to dig into that and get a better idea of why this strategy has continued to underperform and should continue to underperform going forward, I’m much more, as you can tell, in the Musk camp of innovation growth stocks moving humanity forward.
10 interesting facts about Mark Zuckerberg
Mark Zuckerberg Childhood
At the age of 23, Mark Zuckerberg is such an amazing person that he can read, speak, understand, and explain almost eight languages, be it French, Hebrew, Latin, Greek, Mandarin, or English. Since childhood, such a genius, such a focused, strange child, he actually started appearing since childhood.
When children evolved in gaming, they evolved in programming. At the age of 7, his parents thought of teaching him coding; they brought a teacher to teach him coding. The teacher brought Mark Zuckerberg.
Seeing him, he used to say that this student is out of syllabus, even for me. The teacher who was Mark’s teacher started taking lessons from Mark. He was such a smart person that the teacher forgot all his coding and started learning coding from him.
Mark Zuckerberg Early Life
When he later got him admitted to the advanced programming course, he was 10 years old. So, the basic programming course rejected him at first. I didn’t want to learn; I wanted to learn advanced.
When I went to advanced, on the first day, he said to the teacher, What will you teach me? Give me the final exam, and I will pass. The teacher felt very good.
Mark Zuckerberg Education
There is an egotist, a boy said, attending the class. He said, No, I have to attend the class. The exam that is going to be held after one year of your advanced programming makes me want to get that exam done right now. The teacher also got irked.
The teacher was a female. She got arrogant and said, No, okay, give me the exam. I will see you. Not only did he pass the exam, but he passed his final exam without studying.
But he also created an instant messaging tool. It was a new invention at that time. Yes, he got the highest score and got a certificate for the entire course. On the first day, he was an entrepreneur. Since childhood, his mind has worked differently.
Mark Zuckerberg Struggle
A friend of his was sitting in his room and struggling there. He would listen to songs with a music player. Yes, you people also listen to songs today. Instagram’s media player launched in 2000.
I was in high school, and while studying in school, you know what the habits of boys in school are. At that time, he made a media player with a recommended engine, which made it so that children didn’t waste time and could listen to the songs they wanted to listen to.
Also, I know that the next song to listen to is this song, and Bill Gates at that time said, Sign Up Media Player is the most innovative media player. that I have seen to date, and he said, I will just put an advance tag editor in it.”
Mark Zuckerberg – how does course matching work?
The world first points a finger and then claps. This is Mark Zuckerberg when he went to Harvard. When he was taking admission at Harvard, the children were looking worried as to which course I should go to. Which course should I go to? Where there are more girls. Where my friend is going and which one is better for the exam.
Later, the result will be good. Who is whose teacher? Where is the interest more? Whose class is it and how long? He sat there and saw all these problems, and within 48 hours, he did coding and made the course match.
I am talking about the year 2002. Course match: Which course matches my interest? Which course do I want to pick up? Who is going where? Which classmates are talking about what—everything was visible to him right there. He was so intelligent because he never wasted time. He never thought of time. Every billionaire entrepreneur values time a lot, friend.
Mark Zuckerberg dating with girl
At that time, boy-girl relationship breakup patch-up breakup patch-up was happening. One day, he told him, Friend, you should also go and date. No, it is not our job, brother. We write code; we don’t date.
Still, the friend sent him. This girl is very cute; you should go on a date with her. Now, it was a culture there; everyone used to go there. One day, he went there. Sat with the girl in the club, and while drinking beer, he said, Do you know about coding? He said no; he said you know about programming.
He said, No, I will explain Chinese IQ to you. The girl started saying, Look how smart you are. Talk about entrepreneurship in Chinese IQ. She said no. Which book do you read? She said, No; what are you talking about? Then the girl said, What boy has come? He said, I will talk about handsome men.
Where is a good restaurant? I will talk about makeup. I will talk about the latest trend: nightclubs. His mind got disturbed, and Marg understood that this time is for me. This is a huge time-waster.
Mark Zuckerberg different dating
Marg started calculating the same mathematics. The cost of time spent on this, what was its cost? The cost of the gift is the amount of money given as a gift. Dinner cost, the cost of travel, and the cost of not doing the business at this cost.
After calculating the cost, he thought, Friend, the date is getting very expensive. Then, wasting time on women that will be gone, it’s better to invest the time on the unreleased product. If the girl wants to be set, her career should be set. This man is of a different level.
Mark Zuckerberg – Harvard Life
I am inspiring you. I had gotten moderately drunk, and then I got extremely drunk. I picked up that girl’s photo from Harvard’s website and put a photo of a beach with it. I am sorry. I put a photo of a female dog and a beach and asked people there who is better, this girl or this beach.
That went viral; he drank beer overnight and slept. In the morning, there was a big noise, and the girl got very angry. When he saw that the girl was getting angry, I felt that the girl was feeling bad, so what did he do? Instead of that one girl, he put a photo of a beach.
Now he asked two girls to compare, and when he slept after drinking beer tonight, the next day it also went viral that people are comparing two girls. Then, he picked up two different photos from Harvard’s website. He started putting up different photos, and it went viral overnight.
Why did Mark apologize?
The face mash went viral so much that after that, his website crashed at Harvard, and he was called to the public. You have breached it; it is not a violation of internet privacy; it is a breach of computer security.
I should apologize. He came and apologized to the public. He apologized to all those girls whose photos he had used without permission. The board said to apologize to us, too.
He terminated him for six months and said, Yes, I am a criminal. He had 6 months time; his friends said, Okay, now there are 6 months; let’s go on a date, but this time don’t put the dog’s picture. We will plan something else; we will make a new product. You are a genius, man.
15minutes – hack a nightclub website?
I will take you to the club because he did not feel like meeting a girl. If he listens to her, it will be a waste of time, he says. I want to drink anyway; I will do it and use my brain. The music will keep playing in my business, and the nightclub sits right next to me.
I will bring two tickets within 15 minutes. I will give you a ticket, and then I will go without you. He hacked the website of that nightclub in 15 minutes and got two tickets mailed to his email, and within 15 minutes, he gave them to her. The girl gasped in astonishment.
It is not surprising that a person with weak intellect will hack the system. But Mark Zuckerberg has hacked the world, hacked the psychology of people, and hacked people. Harvard created this app. While living in it, he and his friends started working together.
How Facebook journey start?
It was to make girls like me. His purpose was to do something that people can connect with each other. So, the experience of face matching was good. But the problem was he was searching for people’s photos and putting them up.
Should we do something that people themselves put their photos in, people themselves put their details in, and people themselves put their personal information in? It originated there, and within time, he made it in no time.
He prepared it, and the students also got addicted to it. No, the job market wanted to take him outside Harvard. He took him outside Harvard to Yale. He took me to Stanford, Columbia, New York University, and Pennsylvania.
About Technology
All the kids from top colleges in the Ivy League, now when they started using it. The whole world started following him, and he said, “One day, his friend came to him and said, ‘What is the matter?
You are dating that girl, aren’t you? If you are not doing it, then I should take her with me. She is looking at me, smiling these days. Maag said, How do I know if she is alone or with me? No, she is smiling. I feel yes, she laughed. Maag said, “Friend, this is a good question about the girl.”
How do we know what the status is? He entered the same option: “Relationship status: I am single; I am engaged.” So there are different statuses, one by one, doing it, psychology, then technology.
Is Marks’s coding technique funny?
First psychology, then technology; it is saying that every morning, people wake up and ask me about another wife. She is from outside; we will give her this. Now, you sit and do the coding, but what is the rule?
You have to drink one shot of tequila after every 10 lines of code. You have to drink one shot of tequila, or if you are not able to code 10 lines, then you have to drink one shot of tequila every three minutes, one shot in a minute.
If you have to drink tequila, then even after drinking 20 shots of tequila, 10 shots of tequila, if he is able to code, even with such loud music, if he is able to build focus, this man is in a good environment, then how well will he code?
If he did it even in such a difficult situation, then they used to look for focus. They used to see whether he had focus or not, and they used to promote him somewhere, and if attention diverted, they used to throw him out or demote him. The ways of finding it were also different.
How CEO insulted ?
What happened one day, he was leaving his office, and while leaving the office. I saw a new boy join; he said, Hey, what’s up? What’s happening? He looked back and then came back and started coding. No, no, I am talking to you.
I am talking to you. He looked back and started coding. He didn’t turn and see the man sitting next to him. That CEO got insulted. We are saying, CEO, how are you? He didn’t reply; he got busy in his work.
The CEO got busy; some peon was asking him. He said, Sir, I also didn’t listen. A boy, our CEO, is talking to you now. He started explaining to him, and then he ignored him. He kept on doing his work and kept on writing his code.
Doubled salary of unresponsive
He looked at the screen from behind. He is a very serious man; he is busy coding. Mark went to his room and didn’t react to anything. The boy who was explaining to him didn’t react to him, and he didn’t react to the one who didn’t listen.
Then he just called the HR head and got two letters typed. The unresponsive employee received a doubled salary. And the person I am not talking to is blabbering in between. His salary was cut in half; Mark says that for me, he is the one.
The man is useful, whose focus is very sharp, and in this way he spread the culture in his organization; he himself was like this; he himself was like this that I built such a culture that he exemplified leadership, due to which people did it.
Marks words
I will give you an example of this: when, for the first time, there was a lot of energy going on there. And there were some antisocial elements also who were not just doing whiskey and beer. But we were also taking some other dirty drugs; the police raided there; it was a surprise raid. In the surprise raid, someone caught and slapped all of them.
They brought everyone out and turned on all the lights of the club, and the palace was separated there; everyone got scared. They reached there with handcuffs and guns, and everyone, well, Wahab caught everyone.
Party time
There was a commotion; a lot of people asked where their CEO was. Hey, where is Mark? Where is Mark now? Everyone should see Brother Mark; there is no joke here. Where is he? Where is he? He ran away, son; he ran away.
Yes, then everyone found out it was Mank. It was found out, Mark. He was just sitting in the office; he did not reach the party. The policeman reached the office. What are you doing?
He said I forgot to come to the party; actually, I was writing good code, and I was busy with it. The policeman was very impressed and said Your whole office team is celebrating, eating, drinking, cheating, and singing songs; you are still sitting here. He said, Actually, I forgot to come; I was busy with work.
Police arrested his staff ?
He expressed his admiration. I have caught your people; they have committed a crime, but I will punish them as per your wish.” Mark said, You can punish them as you wish, but my condition is that whatever you do, rate this video. I have created and uploaded Stage Forever. This was Marg Loko Bak.
Such a focused man is busy coding himself; such a focused man will increase the salary of the focused; such a focused man will also do such hiring interviews; such a focused man that he has 25 grade t-shirts, and he has 25 pairs of jeans and 5 sneakers; he wears the same and goes out.
He says, There is a reason I am here. I really want to clear my life so much from the clutter of what clothes to choose today. I am so focused on serving my community.
How much is Jeff Bezos worth ?
Jeff Bezos net worth over time
Today, I will share with you about Jeff Bezos. Many people have talked about Jeff Bezos. Jeff Bezos has become the richest man on earth today. What did I say about the first centi-billionaire? What is a centi-billionaire? A centi-billionaire who has hit a century of billionaires? He is more than 100. See, the one who crossed the 100 mark means 112 billion dollars.
Personal net worth number two is Bill Gates with 90 billion dollars. Buffett with 84 billion dollars. Bernard Arnold with 72 billion dollars. At number five is Mark Zuckerberg with 71 billion dollars. Jeff Bezos has such a huge personal net worth.
That means if you add the GDP of 125 countries, big and small, Jeff Bezos alone has a personal net worth more than that. How does a man so intelligent earn so much money by starting a business from a garage on the ground?
10-things
I will tell you 10 things from the life of Jeff Bezos that lifted him from the ground. So he made him the undisputed champion. It made him a rich man; there must be some such strategy, mindset, or thought process.
Actually, Jeff Bezos kept on building good products timely, kept on buying new companies, and kept on investing his personal money in some companies. Due to which his net worth also kept on increasing. Some of the companies in which he invested money are Google, Grocery.com, and Wine.com.
Some of the companies in which he invested money in are Whole Foods, Audible, and Zaps. IMDB, Washington Post, this newspaper is the most popular in the US and on Goodreads. While doing all this, Amazon is a $2763 billion company and, in terms of capitalization and valuation, the number one company on earth. This is the reason that this Apple system got pregnant soon.

While doing all this, Amazon is a $2763 billion company and, in terms of capitalization and valuation, the number one company on earth. This is the reason that this Apple system got pregnant soon.
Early Life
Then he was born, and after birth, from the very beginning, he started studying very quickly. And at a very young age, he reached the position of vice president in a merchant banking company in the early 90s. When he thought that the boom of the company was going to come. The boom of the internet was going to come, the era was going to change, and this banking would continue.
I will come again, but if the internet boom slips out of my hands today, I will not be able to catch it later. That was the time when he resigned from the job of vice president and started his company, which he named Amazon2. He released his IPO in a popular river of America, Amazon2.
Its IPO did not survive very well in the beginning; it did not last very long. He kept facing the initial problems and struggles. This was the only, or we can say one of the very few, such companies that bore the crisis of 2000 and overcame it. Along with this, while simplifying online transactions, he kept adding new product lines and took a new jump.
How is Bezos different from others?
I will quickly share with you 10 things that made Jeff Bezos different from the world. What is the first point? The customer is the king, and I am the servant. Come on one more time; what do you say? The customer is the king, and I am his subject and I am his servant. And He treats the customer like royalty. He advises on royal decorum. Just like this.
Think and keep two things in mind. What is the biggest mistake of the customer? Do you pay equal attention to both these things—what the customer likes very much and what the customer does not like very much? Listen one more time to what the customer likes very much and what the customer does not like very much.
People pay little attention to what they like very much. And many times they miss the things that they dislike very much. That is why I looked at three things—these customers hate three things. What are those three things—delay, defect, and out of stock? What did you say? The customer does not like the goods when they get late. So he does not like them if bad goods are delivered to him and they become out of stock.
Jeff Bezos about Customer satisfaction
The product is not there; it does not suit them. The customer’s attention span is low. If website loading is slow, the customer at 1% will slip out of our hands. Catch it once more and listen to what he is saying.
If the delay in website launch is 1%, the customer at 1% will slip out of our hands. If the delay in website loading is 1%, the customer at 10% will slip out of our hands. If the website loading is delayed by 10 seconds, 100% of the 100 customers will slip out of our hands.
He used to take great care of what the customer likes and what he does not like. The second point is to expect more from his employees. See, he expects a lot from his employees. And when he expects a lot, scolds them a lot, and makes them do a lot of work, then he does not even apologize. He is a slightly different person. What does he say? I have 500,000 employees.
How to make a brand?
This is to take care of my 16 crore customers because we are the subjects; the customer is the king. Today, in this world, same-day delivery is the new norm.
They became famous once again; come on, come on, come on, come on. They became famous for same-day delivery; order in the morning, and the goods will be delivered at home in the afternoon. Even the ration shop owner next door cannot deliver.
Call Raju at the store in America, Amazon2, Raju Bhaiya, and send the goods, he says. The boy is not there; should I send it tomorrow, Amazon2, same-day delivery, one-hour delivery in one or two hours? Why? Why? Because he used to tell his employees that he will improve and improve.
Third, long-term vision. See, when people started investing money in amazononline.in, they designed the next three months according to the 3-year plan. These small monthly profit cycles, they say, are in the vision that the whole earth has to be changed.
Vision
Our vision is to use this platform to build Earth’s most customer-centric company, a place where customers can come to find and discover anything and everything they might want to buy online. My next point is complicating the simple and simplifying the complexities.
What kind of people are Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk? These are the people who complicate every complicated job. People think, What is special about this? What did he say in this”? He is trying to make a very simple product, but at the same time, you see the new tech giants and the new tech gurus of today. They start technology companies.
What will they do? In an attempt to show something big out of the box, they become very jumbled. There is a lack of clarity and a lack of forceful clarity. The next point is every employee has a hidden owner with these. When he first wrote a letter to all the employees, there were only 614 employees.
Jeff Bezos mark his words
Today, what does Bezos say? Jeff Bezos says that 90% to 95% of the employees are working. So don’t wait for 100% accurate information. If you get information at 70%, start doing some small tests. Look at the signals. Then the market will give feedback. Situation: Make every feedback a feed forward. But start quickly.
Don’t delay. In time and start fast. What will happen from that? See, Amazon launched it within 2 days and established it all over the world. You must have faced many problems in the beginning. No problem. What does it mean? See, no product is successful in the first attempt. Let me give you a lesson.
That first product is never the final product. Again I repeat, yes, if you miss it, then your first product is never the final product. If you keep building improvement cycles in it, then what do you say?
So start quickly. If you delay in starting, the competition will eat you up and finish you. Next point, value imitation versus value innovation. This is a great point. Here I like it very much. Because it is my favorite too.
Many Indian businesspeople engage in value imitation. This has done a lot. He did it, he did it, he did it; now I will also start. Put mine too, put my leaf, invest my money; profit is coming here. Oh, its profit is coming; this is very easy. Break the man and take yours with you.
Autobiography of Napoleon Bonaparte
Napoleon Bonaparte: The Emperor Who Changed Europe
Napoleon Bonaparte was the man who would define the start of the 19th century. He has more documented victories than any other battlefield commander in history. I guess you would think, you know, in terms of people like Julius Caesar or Alexander. And I would say in many ways he’s greater. He’s one of the most influential military leaders of all time.
Napoleon was exceptional in that his men truly loved him. From a relatively humble background, he rose to become the master of Europe. For somebody like that to become emperor. The ruler of the largest empire that Europe had seen really since the Middle Ages is just amazing.
Napoleon Bonaparte Early life
This is the rise of Napoleon. This government feels obliged to report this new crisis to you in full detail. Whether Russia claims provocation. What matters is that Russia has been wrong in its response. With this, we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation’s terror. Napoleon Bonaparte began his life in relatively modest circumstances.
He was born on the 15th of August 1769 on the island of Corsica. France had only acquired the island from the Republic of Genoa the previous year. Bringing it under French rule before the French Revolution. Napoleon is someone who is essentially condemned to mediocrity. He came from the minor gentry of a part of France that had only incorporated into France shortly before his birth.
His family is moderately influential on a local level. He has a large number of siblings and a lot of outdoor activities, not a lot of luxury, a mother who is very much down to earth, and a father who is involved in politics.
Napoleon Bonaparte Family
His family is moderately influential on a local level. He has a large number of siblings and does a lot of outdoor activities, not a lot of luxury. A mother who is very much down to earth and a father who is involved in politics.
But in many ways, he is a bit useless. When it comes to things like, you know, running the family finances, gambling, or, you know. Then, he leaves the family impoverished. So Carlo is probably not somebody that a young boy would necessarily look up to.
Carlo Bonaparte and his wife, Letizia, pregnant with Napoleon, had resisted the French. Takeover alongside the Corsican Nationalist leader Pasqual. This, however, ultimately failed, and Carlo Bonaparte, reading the writing on the wall, decided to change.
Napoleon Bonaparte Personal Life
The French took over CA; it took them about a year to more or less assert their control, and Carlo Bonaparte and, by extension, the Bonaparte family switched from being sort of pro-powerly freedom fighters for Corsican independence to being collaborators, and I think that that’s something that troubled Napoleon as he grew up.
But the French monarchy was very keen to integrate Corsica, so a great way of integrating any new territory is to get to know prominent families to send their sons either into the civil service or, in Napoleon’s case, into the army.
He manages to become a military officer, but an artillery officer, which is not a particularly socially distinguished thing to be because to be an artillery officer, you have to know things, and knowing things is very low class as far as the aristocracy is concerned.
Napoleon Bonaparte Political & Social changes
So, in the world of France in the 1780s, which is highly aristocratic in its outlook, Napoleon is if you want a future; if you want to do something big, you do it via the French route. Cora isn’t going to get you anywhere because PO is that sort of buffer; he’s that roadblock.
What Napoleon needed was a world-shaking political and societal upheaval that would remove the existing system of power and enable him to rise rapidly through the ranks of the French military. As it turned out, he would get his wish. The people of France were rising up, disillusioned with their out-of-touch monarchy. France was going to revolt.
Napoleon Bonaparte French revolution
So, the revolution of 1789 has some really deep roots. It’s rooted in the dysfunction of the French monarchy and its inability to fund its ambitions to be a world power. While having a very hierarchical internal social structure where being rich and powerful essentially means that you don’t have to pay very much tax, and this comes to a tremendous climax in the 1780s, ironically.
After the French had been on the winning side of the war of American independence. Then, they’ve built up such an enormous burden of state debt by that point that their rickety tax-collecting mechanisms just cannot cope anymore.
Napoleon Bonaparte Tax Reforms
The only way of reforming the tax system is to reform the entire structure, the political and social structure of France, and it’s, you know, I suppose, an alter. It’s like picking at a woolen sweater.
If you start pulling at a thread, the whole thing unravels, so the French Revolution starts out with tremendous optimism; it starts out with the belief that huge changes can be effected in society, but it also starts out with fear, paranoia, and conspiracies.
Napoleon Bonaparte – Monarchical Constitution?
The reason why the Parisians stormed the Bastille on the 14th of July is that 3 days earlier, the king’s brothers and other high-ranking aristocrats had sacked the reformist government and were trying to do away with the changes that had already been pushed.
After July of 1789, the National Assembly that had been gathered together spent two years trying to put together a monarchical constitution to have Louis the 16th on the throne to have political participation, to have rights, to have everyone paying their taxes, and everything being good and great, but it continually runs into deeper and deeper problems and crises.
Civil War,1791
Enlightenment rationalism encouraged people to pursue reforms. It also told them they could reform the Catholic Church, for example. But trying to reform the Catholic Church runs into the opinion of the upper echelons of society. This is one of the profound chasms that opens up within French society.
So by 1791-1792, you have a state of latent civil war. All these tensions that have been brought out over the previous three years are still brewing at the center of this Civil War. Where the Jacobins, led by Maximilien Robespierre. The Jacobins are Republicans, and they are Republicans of a radical bent.
Big Opportunity
These are people who wanted the execution of Louis the 16th. Really, they were looking for a very profound political transformation of France. They don’t just want a sort of change at the top. While keeping the existing system pretty much as is. But they’re very happy to use violence and terror to push the revolution forward.
The Jacobins had a strong influence on Napoleon. When he returned to France and rejoined his regiment in Nice in June 1793. Here, he wrote an account expressing his support for the radical republican group.
Not long after, perhaps as a result of this pro-Jacobin writing. Napoleon received his first significant opportunity.. He was called upon to lead the French artillery. As the Republican forces laid siege to the strategic port city of Toulon, a natural harbor. To this day, it remains the main port of France.
Basically, he thinks he’s one and there. Actually, he retreats to communicate that success back to his superiors. But he completed it a little bit ahead of the close of play. Then, the French managed to call up reinforcements.
Credit to Napoleon
Napoleon throws in his consular guard, and he plugs some gaps in the French line, uh, and then you get the arrival of Des, who comes in at a crucial moment and really catches, I think, the Austrians, who really think they have won, uh, by surprise and bundles them back to where they had started.
Inflicts, you know, a substantial number of casualties on the Austrian side in terms of killed and wounded. But above all, captured, so that really wrecks the Austrian Army.
Napoleon is saved again from possible defeat by General Desaix, who storms onto the battlefield of Maringo and gets himself killed in saving the day, enabling Bonaparte to claim all the credit.
Peace and Prosperity
France will find itself by 1801 able to be at peace, able even to bring the British to the peace table for the first time in this whole period because the British now know they have no Continental allies and no sense of how they could prosecute the war any further.
So, the Peace of Amiens was initially agreed to in late 1801 and formally signed in 1802, and for the next year or so, Napoleon really does appear as the PE maker of Europe.
He’s established a settlement where France is as dominant as a nation might want to be in that sphere of Western Europe, but it will turn out to be only a pause in the larger military story.
Artillery officer turn to the emperor
As a consequence, the regime becomes exactly what Napoleon Bonaparte thought it was I mean, Napo knew his history, and he knew the story of Charlemagne, who had been crowned by the pope on Christmas Day 800, and of course, that relationship implies that the emperor of the West owes his authority and legitimacy to the church as a mediator between God and secular power.
Really, Napoleon didn’t want to give that kind of impression in just 10 years. Napoleon Bonaparte went from an unknown artillery officer to the emperor of the largest empire in a thousand years.
His ambition did not stop there and would see Europe in an almost constant state of war for the next decade, an era aptly named the Napoleonic Wars. Napoleon had the opportunity, as he’d had the opportunity before, to sit back into being a great power.
His Legacy
But the future would prove that was never enough for him; there’s always more to strive for, and he, of course, after 1804, embarked upon the greater part of his territorial conquest with which he took Spain after 1808 and Russia in 1812.
It’s a fundamentally undemocratic regime, but a military victory. Really, you need to supply military victory. After the military victory, of course that came a route to conquest without limit. Although Napoleon’s military successes faltered and his mastery over Europe proved to be short-lived.
His legacy has endured to this day. If you look at France, it’s really under Napoleon’s direction and encouragement that the institutions of modern France are really created; its creation is promoted right down to all the codes of law. In every direction you look, you can see Napoleon’s hand.

Julius Caesar Story
Julius Caesar: The Man Who Changed Rome Forever
During the time of the ancient Roman Empire, many men wrote their names in the eternity of history; some will be remembered as brave and astute commanders, others earned fame for their cruelty and cowardice, but one name still echoes century after century: Gaius Julius Caesar.
Julius Caesar Early LIfe
Julius Caesar got birth on July 13th, 100 BC. As a child, Caesar already proved himself as an adventurer, as he was an active and good-spirited boy, but at just 16, his life changed abruptly; his father passed away, and Julius suddenly became the head of his family. Julius was the nephew of Gaius Marius, a great general and politician.
He became famous for his military victories and for reorganizing the model of the Roman legions. Marius was known for his magnetic personality. Also, he was immensely respected by the soldiers who fought alongside him, which influenced the character of the young Julius Caesar, who saw in his uncle a model to be followed.
But during Julius’s adolescence, his uncle waged a civil war against ambitious Lucius Cornelius Sulla. They fought for the control of the city of Rome in the midst of this civil war. Julius Caesar married the daughter of his uncle’s political ally; his beloved’s name was Cornelius Cinna. Together they had a daughter named Julia.
Julius Caesar personal profile
Attempting to get away from Rome as quickly as possible, Julius enlisted in the army, where he fought in distant Turkey. Julius served in the army with great prominence, even receiving the civic crown as a reward for his heroic acts.
His superiors and fellow soldiers quickly recognized him, showing a promising future as a middle-tier commander, but in 78 BC, Julius received the news that his rival had died. Cornelius Sulla had died suddenly; for Julius Caesar, that meant a chance to come home after fulfilling his contract.
In the army, Julius returned to his home; however, to his misfortune, Sulla’s government confiscated his inheritance. To survive, Caesar used his powerful voice and his oratory skills to become a successful lawyer, and by working hard, Julius Caesar was able to rebuild his family’s social status.
Julius Caesar victory over pirates
But he vowed to seek revenge on them across the seas upon his release. The pirates mocked Julius throughout the journey. They ridiculed his arrogance. But at last, they accepted his cash offer. When he was finally free, Julius used his oratory gifts to attract sailors. Warriors to his cause, and using the rest of his fortune, he set up a fleet of ships.
Caesar spent several months sailing and facing pirate ships. He plundered the captured ships, which allowed him to make a profit from his victories. When Julius finally found the pirates who had kidnapped him. Then, he defeated them in battle and had the survivors crucified.
The pirates paid a high price for mocking Julius Caesar, which increased Caesar’s fame. Already renowned in Rome, upon returning, the army recalled him. He left to fight in foreign lands. Julius stood out again on the battlefields. Thus, the position of military tribute. Which guaranteed him the right to command many soldiers and run for political office.
Julius Caesar political career
Julius Caesar returned to Rome in 69 BC. That year, he began his political career, taking up a new post in the Roman Senate. His wife, Cornelia, had become pregnant again. Everything in Caesar’s life seemed peaceful. But to Julius’s misfortune. His beloved wife died that year. Due to a birth filled with complications that stole her life and that of her baby shortly after his wife’s funeral.
The sentence is already in active voice in Spain. He was the administrator of the territories controlled by Rome. One day, Julius decided to get to know the city of Cadiz better. Where he was living. After travelling some distance, he found a statue that time had worn down.
When Julius approached, he noticed that it was a statue of Alexander the Great. As he approached the feet of the statue. Caesar felt an enormous torment and began to cry. He was already 33 years old; he felt he had not conquered anything great in his life yet.
Julius Caesar was equal to Alexander the Great
On the contrary, Alexander the Great at that age had already conquered an empire. At that moment, Caesar swore he would not rest until he was equal to Alexander in his conquests. Julius Caesar fulfilled his role in Spain.
He gained fame as a good governor. And subdued local tribes who had revolted against the Roman occupation. However, Caesar was not happy to spend so much time away from Rome. After completing his service in Spain, he returned to his hometown.
Upon his return to Rome, Julius focused his efforts on achieving new political positions. Julius wanted to be Pontifex Maximus, the highest priest of the Roman religion, but he was running against two other reputable senators to support the campaign. Caesar spent most of his fortune. Julius Caesar knew he could not fail to win this new position.
Julius Caesar governance
If he failed, his political career would be over, and he would be broke for the rest of his life. To get around this problem, Julius allied himself with Marcus Licinius Crassus, known for being the richest man in Rome. Crassus paid off.
He covered half of Julius Caesar’s debt and secured the rest, becoming a valuable ally. Julius was able to win the election and take on the position. So he had hoped for, but he needed to pay off a huge debt to Marcus Crassus. That other powerful men noted the alliance.
General Pompey had importance in the Roman Senate. Other senators respected, even feared, him. Pompey did not like Julius Caesar’s growing ambition; he started watching that man who seemed to stand out from the crowd.
Julius Caesar won election
The years have passed; in 60 BC, Caesar became consul, the highest office in the Roman Republic, as a consul. Julius Caesar obtained great authority in the city of Rome to the point where he could even be immune from the laws of the city and be acquitted of any criminal charge.
Caesar won the election again, and as consul he proved to be a dangerously ambitious man that year. Julius married Calpurnia, who would be his wife for the rest of his life. General Pompey publicly showed his aversion to Julius Caesar and also his discontent with Cuz Crassus to solve this issue.
Julius met with Pompey and Crassus to form a new political and military alliance. This alliance became known as the first triumvirate, in which the three most powerful men of Rome would work together to rule Rome.
Julius Caesar army
Pompey increased the number of soldiers on the streets of the city, providing more security to the population. Crassus bought a large naval fleet and wanted to establish trade routes in distant lands such as Syria and Egypt, increasing his wealth and bringing new products to demand.
Roman markets and Caesar took the military command to conquer new lands for Rome. Julius Caesar’s fortune seemed promising again; he would not waste the opportunity to immortalize his name in history.
Julius Caesar was elected to the post of Roman consul, gaining great authority in all the territories conquered by Rome, but to achieve such an important position, Julius Caesar incurred a gigantic debt to Marcus Crassus, the richest man in Rome.
Caesar goals
Caesar had not yet forgotten that day at the foot of the statue of Alexander the Great; the desire to match Alexander and his conquests was still alive in Julius Caesar’s heart. The best way to achieve his goals was to conquer new territories for Rome, thus confiscating the riches and receiving part of the taxes of the conquered cities and villages.
It was there that Julius Caesar focused his attention on going Gaul was an ancient region classified by the Romans comprising territories that are now France. Belgium and parts of Italy and Germany are located today, for the most part, in Gaul, which was a wild territory full of forests and inhabited by several very hostile Celtic tribes.
With these obstacles, Gaul was not easy to invade, much less to conquer, because it was a difficult task. Julius Caesar made Gaul the main target of his ambitions. On April 58 BC, Caesar marched towards Gaul in command of four legions, some twenty-four thousand soldiers.
Victory over the Gaul tribe
His regions were on top of a hill, gaining a strategic position against the Gauls. The soldiers hid the other parts of the regions on a different hill covered by trees. The Roman regions managed to stop the Gauls’ initial advance.
It was the start of a long and arduous struggle that would last almost a whole day. At the ideal moment, Julius ordered the hidden legions to attack the rear of the Gaul army. The Gauls resisted for some time. But the discipline and determination of the Roman legions defeated them; to take advantage of their enemies, the Helvetians surrendered.
Julius allowed many to be freed, provided they returned to their lands and agreed to work the crops to feed the legions. Others were not so lucky. They sent them as prisoners to Rome. Where the captors would sell them as slaves… This heroic victory marked the beginning of several conquests in Gaul.
Gaul surrendered
Soon after, Caesar and his legions fought the Germanic tribe of the Suevi and achieved another major victory. In the years that followed, Julius Caesar continued to advance in the Gaul territory, establishing new alliances and, in so doing, subjugating tribes or, when necessary, destroying cities and settlements.
Obviously, the Gauls did not peacefully accept the Roman occupation; at times, some tribes rebelled, which provoked new battles. Having suppressed the Belgian rebellion in 55 BC.
Completely, Julius Caesar nearly conquered Gaul. Caesar had accumulated enough wealth to pay his debt to Crassus. And after that he would have enough to live in peace.
60 senators attacked
His nephew, Marcus Brutus, whom Caesar held in great esteem. In order not to arouse any suspicion. One of the senators handed over a parchment with a petition for Caesar to assess. The other senators walked to him, pretending to be interested in reading what was written.
Then, the nearest senator, who had hidden a dagger in his cloak, grabbed Caesar’s robe. Julius Caesar tried to dodge his attacker. But the senator started yelling for help, demanding the other members of the conspiracy to advance.
Sixty senators attacked Caesar. Being mortally wounded by about 23 dagger wounds. One of the last to do it was his own nephew, Marcus Brutus, who dealt the fatal blow in an ironic touch of fate.
Death
Caesar fell at the feet of Pompey’s statue; when he looked up, he saw the face of his nephew, and with his last bit of strength, he pulled a part of his cloak to cover his face, avoiding the shame of looking into the traitor’s eyes.
Julius Caesar survived countless battles and challenges in his life, but now, he lay motionless on the cold floor of the Roman Senate. There are no accurate accounts of Julius Caesar’s last words.
Some believe he sent it to his nephew, Brutus. This sentence was written by William Shakespeare and immortalized in the play in which he portrays Julius Caesar, but the writers Suetonius and Plutarch believe that Caesar did not say a single word at the moment of his death.
After Caesar’s assassination, most of the senators fled from the Senate, fearing they would be caught by the soldiers who were guarding the city and the conspirators. They believed that Caesar’s death would bring the city’s political power back into the hands of the Senate.
Public protest after Caesar death
However, they did not expect the emerging popular uprising. Caesar was seen as a hero by the majority of the population, and when the news of his death spread, the citizens of Rome began to gather to protest against it.
Julius Caesar’s body was brought to be cremated in a public place according to the tradition of the time; a massive number of people attended the ceremony, and as a farewell gesture, they threw wood and personal objects to the funeral pyre caused the fire to rise to such an extent that it damaged the Senate building.
The crowd ran after the conspirators Cassius and Brutus, who, amid that confusion, managed to flee to Greece. Brutus, perhaps consumed by regret, ended up committing suicide in 42 BC.
Emperor add Caeser sirname to their name
Queen Cleopatra and her son, Sigh Aryan, were in Rome at the time, but they returned to Egypt a few days after Julius Caesar died in a public square. Mark Antony read the will of Julius Caesar.
He pointed out his great-nephew Gaius Octavius as his successor and gave him the right to use the name Caesar. Gaius Octavius changed his name to Gaius Julius Caesar Octavius, and a few years after his uncle’s death, he was crowned as the first Roman Emperor.
The following Roman emperors began to include the surname Caesar in their own names. The great story of Julius Caesar came to an end, but the name of this remarkable man became synonymous with greatness.
