Rose Blumkin: The Woman Who Scared Warren Buffet

“If you took the Fortune 500 CEOs and put them in competition with Mrs B. She’d win.” Warren Buffett

“If you took the Fortune 500 CEOs and put them in competition with Mrs B. She’d win.”

This is what billionaire investor Warren Buffett told Charlie Rose in a 2006 interview when speaking about Rose Blumkin – aka Mrs B.

This woman was so good at business that she took $500 and turned it into a multimillion-dollar empire. She was an immigrant, she had no formal education, and she was a woman in a world dominated by men. Yet, she thrived. She was so successful that the legendary investor Warren Buffet said the only person he doesnt want to ever compete with was Mrs B. He was so serious that in a contract he signed with her at the age of 99, he made sure she signed she would not compete with him for as long as she lived. Warren Buffet went on to say of her ''Put her up against the top graduates of the top business schools or chief executives of the Fortune 500 and, assuming an even start with the same resources, she'd run rings around them'' Mrs. B was a business legend, yet very few people know about her. This woman who has so much to teach the world has been ignored by the world. In this video, we will follow the story of Mrs B.
