Unless I am buying during Great bull market, I am confident that it will perform better ... And I can come back and go on with my work. "This information has been translated and reproduced by the domestic media and articles, and some have even proved that the investment guru is also a fan of index investment." Mr Buffett, who specializes in active investment, recommends passive investment in index funds, actually contains a wealth of information: more than 30-year-old people suitable for investment index funds, index funds Low-cost, careful not to buy in Great bull market, index funds under certain conditions performance is very good, to concentrate on their work, not for the index short-term fluctuations troubled ... This information can be read as follows: first, the index fund is suitable for long-term investment. Buffett sees the questioner's age at about more than 30, so he advises him on the investment index. If the investment from 30 years old, to the age of 60 retirement, about 30, 30 years is really a long time. We review the three major U.S. stock indexes for nearly 30 years: The Dow Jones index rose from May 16, 1979 828.5 to May 13, 2009 8,285, dramatically increasing by 10 times times, an average annual growth rate of about 8%.

Buffett's view is that great bull market's top buy index fund, the risk is very big. But if the market is at the bottom or the middle and the investment risk is fully released, the performance of the index fund is good enough in the recovery process.

Third, the index fund low rates. The management fee of the general active Management Fund is 1.5%, the custodian fee is 0.25%, while the management rate of the domestic index fund is between 0.5%-1.3%, the trusteeship rate is between 0.1% and 0.25%, and the index fund can save about 1% of the management cost each year, relative to the active management Fund,  That represents an additional 1% return on investment, with a significant difference in investment results from 20 to 30 with the power of long-term investment compounding. Investment do not forget the job. Buffett's words finally settled down to "... Go back to doing your job "is advice to all investors who are not investing as a career.
