Warren Buffett and the women of the world have something in common, says author LouAnn Lofton: They are better investors than the average man.
While men are brash, overly daring and compulsive, women tend to be studious, skeptical and reasonable, according to Ms. Lofton's new book, Warren Buffett Invests Like A Girl And Why You Should Too. In it, she claims that part of the investing maestro's success is due to his ability to tap into his feminine side.
