It is very hard to earn a lot as an investor when the business you are in doesn't earn very much money- Warren Buffet

basant i like your boarding train analogy again very common sense at play even a person with hazy vision can board a stationary train try boarding a train hurtling at 60 miles per hr now thats siucidal.
understanding both the power of compound return and the difficulty getting it is the heart and soul of understanding a lot of things

Here is another gem from that WB lecture:
 
We never look back. We just figure there is so much to look forward to that there is no sense thinking of what we might have done. It just doesn’t make any difference. You can only live life forward.-Warren Buffet

Guess it deals with voting rights etc something like preferred stock and equity - have a lot of that in Brazil markets. Some one else might be able to provide a better answer.
