Warren Buffett emphasizes the importance of selecting a spouse wisely in achieving personal and financial success. He believes that associating with the right people influences one's direction in life, highlighting the spouse as the most crucial choice. Buffett suggests that for a lasting marriage, one should look for a partner with low expectations. His first marriage was to Susan Buffett, who played numerous supportive roles in his life, and after her passing, he married Astrid Menks, a longtime family friend.
"You want to associate with people who are the kind of person you'd like to be. You'll move in that direction, and the most important person by far in that respect is your spouse."
"If you want a marriage to last, look for someone with low expectations," Buffett told Fortune at the 2015 Most Powerful Women Summit.
"Warren was emotionally captivated by Susan who was at once his ideological mentor, his sexual goddess, his gateway to social acceptance, and his therapist."
