70 Super Businesses of Buffett for long term.


Warren Buffet is the one and only GOD of investing.
Recently while going through some blogs here I got a comprehensive list of the businesses that Buffett is holding.
Although this list is not the complete list but still a good one to see into the wonderful businesses that can be held for a lifetime.
