| Growth of Warren Buffett's Fortune |
The red line is the value of his fortune.The scale at the bottom is his age.The yellow line is the average growth of his investments, scaled up by a factor of five billion so you can see it on this chart.
The dip happened in 1974. Warren lost over half of his fortune, about $24 million. During the first thirty years of this chart, the value of his fortune increased by a factor of 5,000, but it doesn't even raise the red line above zero. Only when he gets to a billion dollars in the 1980s does the red line start moving up.
I got the numbers from this meme:
