$MSCI CEO explains to Barron’s how MSCI’s business model works. No one can explain this company’s revenue better than he can. Focus on the asset-management fees that’s the real reason the company is growing slowly right now. Pension funds, private equity funds, and big institutions are all playing very conservatively. Warren Buffett isn’t alone; a ton of funds are sitting on cash or Treasuries.

But the “WORST business” is one that draws you into investing more and more capital, but the hoped for cash flows never truly manifest, always requiring the next capital investment to simply stand still…

Warren Buffett: "We run Berkshire in a way that they don't teach in business schools. In business schools, they say sell off your so-so businesses and keep buying new businesses. I call that gin rummy management." "If I have 50 kids and one of them isn't doing quite as well as the others, I'm not going to put him up for adoption."
