在60年代后期
In the late 1960s, there were just a flood
账目诈骗
of accounting shenanigans and mergers
和建立在伪造账目上的兼并误导了群众
built upon false accounting and misleading people.
当时的华尔街
It was a time when a lot of charlatans
江湖骗子盛行
were prevailing in Wall Street
华尔街还一致称赞
and were being applauded by Wall Street.
我知道这是什么游戏
I understood what the game was about,
但我不想在里面玩
but I didn't want to play in it,
所以我在1969年底关掉了合伙企业
so I closed down the partnership at the end of 1969,
我开始担任伯克希尔哈撒韦的主席
and I took on the title of Chairman for Berkshire Hathaway.
我认为现今的伯克希尔
Well, I think the modern Berkshire
都是沃伦的反射
is pretty much all a reflection of Warren.
我构造的适合我的企业
I have constructed a business that fits me.
如果你用一生来
It's kind of crazy to spend your life painting
画你不想看的画作真是太疯狂了
if you're painting a subject you don't want to look at.
我在无尽的帆布上
I've gotten to paint my own painting in business
勾勒我自己的画
on an unlimited canvas in a way.
