Commentary: Can anyone replicate Warren Buffett’s performance?

Quick Summary:

Since 1965, the "Sage of Omaha" has been the driving force behind Berkshire Hathaway.

His successor has big shoes to fill, says the Financial Times' Andrew Hill.

With the self-deprecation that has always marked him out from self-aggrandising fellow CEOs, Buffett has long attributed much of this success to the “ovarian lottery” that saw him born white, male and relatively well off, with the ability and capacity to invest at an auspicious time for US capitalism.
