Buffett has generated superior -risk-adjusted- returns over very long periods of time. Sure, he has longevity and a good starting point (wealthy family as an enabler) but so do countless others.
As for his stock picking advice, it makes good sense. Michael Jordan might recommend a different general approach to playing the point guard position vs. the approach he took… and there is nothing inconsistent with doing one thing and advising another, when you are exceptional. In fact, it is excellent advice.
