>> , AND ITS ASSET VALUE ISN'T SOMETHING YOU CAN CALCULATE WITH ANY CERTAINTY, BUT THAT'S WHAT A MARGIN OF SAFETY IS ALL ABOUT.>>

I am a bit confused here: buffet emphasize margin of safety so that he only invest in the very best company, so that his risk is very low. so if you can't calculate any thing with any certainty, then what's the point of doing it?

>>I SAID SOMETHING ABOUT BEING PRETTY CERTAIN OF A 30% GAIN BY MARCH. THAT AIN'T NO BOND. >>
so i guess you still care about how much is the upside potential. if it's only 3% by march, will you buy it?
