For one of the richest people in the entire world, Warren Buffett, the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, is surprisingly down to Earth. He famously lives in the same modest house in Omaha that he bought in 1958 for $31,500, and his favorite meal for breakfast is McDonald’s. Between that and his folksy, easy-to-understand wisdom, it’s no wonder that Buffett is so popular with the general public.

Investors no doubt also love his enviable track record, which has more than doubled the average annual return of the S&P 500 since 1965, an incredible run. The bottom line is that when Buffett talks, people listen.

With that in mind, here are some of the best pieces of financial advice for the middle class offered up by the man known as the “Oracle of Omaha.”

Warren Buffett’s 6 Best Pieces of Money Advice for the Middle Class

March 22, 2024 by John Csiszar Edited by Amber Barkley

With that in mind, here are some of the best pieces of financial advice for the middle class offered up by the man known as the “Oracle of Omaha.”

Pay Yourself First

Buffett isn’t the first or the only one to recommend “paying yourself first,” but he’s a vocal advocate of it.

Buffett approaches the problem of prioritizing savings through wise budgeting. As the billionaire puts it: “Do not save what is left after spending, but spend what is left after saving.”

The idea behind this philosophy is that if you wait to sock away savings until after you’ve spent all your money in a given month, it’s highly likely that you’ll find there’s nothing left. But if you instead save your money first, you’ll have to budget what’s left so that it stretches to cover all of your expenses.

This serves the dual purpose of forcing you to cut down on needless expenditures, while at the same time forcing you to build up savings, even on a smaller salary.

Some middle class Americans feel that they don’t earn enough to save, but when you flip the equation on its head like Buffett suggests, you might find out that you can save much more than you imagine.

Reduce Your Unnecessary Expenses

On the topic of budgeting, Buffett says that one of the keys to financial prosperity is simply to reduce your unnecessary expenses.

How do you know which ones are unnecessary? If you force yourself to live on a tighter budget, you’ll see right away which expenses you prioritize in life and which ones might be extra costs that you don’t really need. Over time, even a little amount of savings can build into a large amount.

Tishwash: American immunity over Iraqi funds... How did it begin and what does it mean?

On May 22, 2003, former US President George W. Bush issued an executive order to protect the Development Fund for Iraq, in which the proceeds of oil sales were deposited, with the aim of protecting it from any legal prosecution.

After more than two decades, successive US administrations are still renewing this presidential executive order and other orders related to Iraq and aiming to protect its funds.

The current US President, Joe Biden, signed the decree extending the state of national emergency related to the situation in Iraq for another year, which stated: “There are still obstacles to the orderly reconstruction of Iraq, restoring and maintaining peace and security in the country, and developing political, administrative, and economic institutions in Iraq.” .

The statement added that these obstacles "pose an extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of Iraq and the United States of America as well. Therefore, (Joe Biden) has decided that it is necessary to continue the state of national emergency declared under Executive Order 13303 regarding the stability of Iraq."

What is Executive Order 13303?

The Executive Order is intended to protect the Development Fund for Iraq and certain other properties in which Iraq has an interest.

According to what was stated in the text of the executive order, then US President George W. Bush saw that there was a threat to seize or take other judicial measures against the Development Fund for Iraq and Iraqi oil and petroleum products and the revenues arising from them.

The executive order also stated that this situation “poses an extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States, and therefore a national emergency has been declared to address this threat.”

The order states that any seizure, judgment, decree or other judicial proceeding against the Development Fund for Iraq or Iraqi oil and petroleum products and the proceeds and obligations relating to their sale or marketing shall be null and void.

The Executive Order prohibits all US citizens and residents of the United States, as well as any entity organized under US laws, from filing lawsuits against Iraqi funds.

According to the US National Emergency Law, failure to renew the executive order within a period of 90 days from the date of the previous renewal means that it will become invalid.

Development Fund for Iraq

The Development Fund for Iraq was established after 2003, and before that, money from Iraqi oil sales was placed in an account managed by the United Nations within what is known as the Oil-for-Food Program.

In the mid-nineties of the last century, the UN Security Council resolution related to oil for food was issued and stipulated the sale of a portion of Iraqi oil in exchange for the purchase of medicines and food during the era of Saddam Hussein’s regime, which suffered international sanctions as a result of its invasion of Kuwait in 1990.

This situation continued until 2003, when a new Security Council resolution was issued under which most of the economic sanctions were abolished, provided that issues related to the invasion of Kuwait were resolved, such as compensation, prisoners, and others. link

Rod Steele [via PDK] Sudani has been in the US since Saturday and he met with Biden for an hour on Monday. Everything is now formally agreed too…Iraq is telling the people it is done and coming. The ABC agencies are saying to look for it between now and the rest of the week. The banks are hoping it will be tonight [Wednesday] or in the morning. I think they are a little bit ahead of the game though. Logically and realistically I think it will be next week because all the key Iraqi ministers and officers are here in the US. I think they will wait until they are back on Iraqi soil...I hear they are putting up big screen TV’s all over Baghdad and other parts of Iraq for some big announcement when they get back. We don’t know what that announcement is…but, I can guess.

Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY: Sudani...is meeting with Iraqi business owners in the United States of America ...They're talking about visits that will bring more stability. They're saying they are going to return the dinar to its price and how the dollar will drop dramatically and not be used in Iraq. A lot is being said about the strength of our currency of the dinar and the meeting is over 100 of these companies.

CandyKisses: On the table of parliament are 150 bills awaiting a vote. And the dialectics need consensus

Baghdad Today - Baghdad

Today, Thursday (April 18, 2024), a member of the Parliamentary Legal Committee, MP Omid Mohammed, confirmed the existence of 150 draft laws on the table of the standing committees of the House of Representatives.

Mohammed said in a statement to "Baghdad Today", that "his committee is following up on draft laws and amendments put forward by the standing committees in the House of Representatives, which amount to 150 laws so far," adding that "controversial laws need political consensus, but the file of the presidency of the Council in light of the lack of resolution of the vote on a candidate for it reflects negatively on the file of legislation Laos.

He called for "the need for the State Administration Coalition to have positive steps in this direction in order for the current legislative term to be fruitful in the direction of resolving many laws and their amendments."

He stressed "the need to proceed with the legislation of controversial laws, including general amnesty, service and others without political consensuses that contribute to securing sufficient votes to vote on them, and this needs to resolve the rest of the files in order to proceed with them," pointing out that "the resolution of the law for people with disabilities and voting on it 3 days ago represents an important step during the legislative term of the Council to resolve the rights of an important segment."

Parliament is expected to hold a session for today, after postponing in its last session the vote on the draft law on the first amendment to the Iraqi Housing Fund Law No. (32) of 2011, and postponing the vote on the draft law on the first amendment to the Property Claims Commission Law No. (13) of 2010, where the House of Representatives completed the first reading of the draft law on the accession of the Republic of Iraq to the Convention on the Elimination of Violence and Harassment in the World of Work, as well as the report and discussion of the draft law regulating renewable energy.
