"I think that one of the things that is missing, and one of the things I have discovered is that there's a substantial distinction between people who are investors and people who are owners in businesses. An owner in a business is far more interested in his survival, in the first instance, than its necessary monetary value. No owner of a business wakes up every morning asking himself what he's worth."
