Warren Buffet – Quote of the Day for December 17, 2025

Today's Quote from Warren Buffet - December 17th 2025

Insight on Today's Quote

That quote is basically a “sleep better at night” plan. A single income can work, but it’s fragile—one delay, one emergency, one random life curveball, and everything feels tight. A second source doesn’t have to be huge. It can start tiny: a skill you sharpen, a side gig you build, or an investment habit you automate. The goal isn’t to get rich overnight. It’s to buy yourself options.

Step Up To The Challenge

Pick one “second-source seed” and do 20 minutes on it today:

  1. Skill seed: Learn one small money-making skill (watch a tutorial + take notes).

  2. Side-income seed: List one service you can offer (editing, admin, design, tutoring, bookkeeping) and draft a 3-sentence offer.

  3. Investment seed: Set up or review an automatic savings/investing plan (even a tiny amount).

  4. Selling seed: Choose 3 unused items, take photos, and draft a listing.

At the end, write one line: “My second source starts with ____.”
