       Value and invest in yourself

       If you are into financial investment, you’re probably very
       familiar with Mr. Warren Buffet (1951–present). He is the most
       successful investor in the world. His investment strategies are
       legendary and many people seek to learn after him.
       Even more respectable, he pledged to give away 99% of his wealth
       (more than $30 billions at the time of the pledge in 2006) to
       non-profit foundations, mostly to Bill Gate’s Foundation.
       Mr. Buffet often travels to universities to give speeches to
       educate and motivate students. Here is one of his speeches to
       teach us the value of our body, to invest in ourselves, in
       education for a great future.

       />that a Genie offers you any car in the world. The catch is
       that
       it is the only car you will ever own. What would you do?
       You would read the manual ten times, change the oil twice as
       often as required, and you would take fastidious care so that
       that car remained the car of your dreams forever.
       Think about what this tells you about your body.
       You get only one mind and one body–the same ones you will have
       at 20, 40, 60, etc.
       Take care of them and maximize their potential. It will be too
       late to take care of your body and mind (and car) later on. You
       can maintain them, but it is hard or impossible to undo big
       mistakes or negligence later on. You do not want to end up with
       a wreck on your hands.
       Your main asset in life is
       yourself.[right]

       Treat yourself as a valuable asset. I often explain to students
       that I would be willing to pay today for a percentage of the
       future earnings of good students.
       If you value yourself, and invest in yourself, you will be worth
       a great deal through out your lifetime, both to yourself and to
       your community.
