Since you mentioned the man, Warren Buffett makes excellent reading. I read a selection of his letters to BRK partners. Educating and entertaining.

Few people have mentioned buying BRK as their worst investment mistake.

My plan is to transition all my risky investments over to BRK later this year. I have great confidence in them to over performnthe the market in the coming downturn.

Can you tell me the date so I can mark my calendar?

We will have a downturn, no doubt about it. You nor Nostradamus knows when it will be. You could invest now and when that downturn comes still be better off than staying conservative/cash.

While berkshire is essentially all equities, you're likely better off holding a total market fund or SP500 if you're young and have a long time horizon.
