Warren Buffett praises LeBron James' skills beyond basketball and for his
'money mind'
巴菲特称赞LBJ篮球以外的技巧以及一个会赚钱的脑袋
Warren Buffett says LeBron James’ skills go beyond basketball and the
billionaire investor lauded the Los Angeles Lakers’ star for his “money
mind."
身家超过百亿，著名的投资家华伦巴菲特说LBJ的技术不只有在篮球场上，而且LBJ有个会
赚钱的脑袋。
“People really do have minds that function better than other people’s in
certain areas that you can’t give a test for," Buffett told USA TODAY Sports
Tuesday in a phone interview. “And LeBron, in addition to a lot of other
talents, he has a money mind. And he gets stuff."
“有些人就是有那种在某些领域可以比其他人都要做的好的脑袋，那是测验测不出来
的，”巴菲特在接受电话访问时说到。“LBJ除了很多其他的天赋外，他还有个会赚钱的脑
袋，他是有料的。”
James has made $765 million since he turned pro in 2003, according to a
Forbes report published in July. Last year he made $25 million on an
investment of less than $1 million in Blaze Pizza, according to published
reports, while at the same time he has helped develop several entertainment
projects.
根据七月份的富比世杂志，LBJ在2003年进入职业比赛，总共赚了7亿6500万镁。据报导，
去年他在投资金额不到100万镁的Blaze Pizza上就赚到了2500万镁，另外同一时间他也在
进行数个娱乐相关计画。
“He can separate out the cream from the crap, and you get more of the latter
proposed to you than you do of the former," said Buffett, who added that he
met James shortly after James turned pro and the two have communicated
periodically since then. “You really have to be able to suss it out."
“他可以从垃圾中找到黄金，而大部分的人碰到的都是垃圾，很少可以得到黄金，”巴菲
特也提到，当LBJ转入职业后，他们两个定期会有联络。“你必须要有能力可以分别这两
者。”
A friend of Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert, Buffett was slightly less
effusive when asked how he felt about James’ decision to leave the Cleveland
Cavaliers for the Los Angeles Lakers.
巴菲特也是骑士队老板Dan Gilbert的朋友，所以当他被问到有关LBJ决定离开骑士加入湖
人的决定，他就没有那么兴致勃勃了。
“I was glad to see him go back to Cleveland (from Miami in 2014)," Buffett
said. “To deliver that championship to Cleveland, you know, it was great. It
was one hell of an achievement and I’m glad it happened.
“我很高兴看到他回到了克里夫兰(2014年从迈阿密)，”巴菲特说。“给了克里夫兰一个
冠军，你知道的，那真的很伟大；那真的是个了不起的成就，我很开心那终于发生了。”
“But in terms of where effectively, what kind of a group works best, and
everything, I’m sure he made a good choice (signing with the Lakers) and he’
ll bring a lot to anything he does. He’s got a lot more talent than is shown
on the basketball court."
“至于讲到哪一个球队环境比较有效，哪一种团队最适合，或是其他的考量，我相信LBJ做
了一个很好的选择(与湖人签约)，他也一定会努力做每一件事，他除了在篮球场上，他还
有很多其他的天赋。”
