巴菲特芒格原话
What starts as an “innocent” fudge in order to not disappoint “the Street” — say, trade-loading at quarter-end, turning a blind eye to rising insurance losses, or drawing down a “cookie-jar” reserve — can become the first step toward full-fledged fraud.一开始只是为了不让华尔街失望而做的“无伤大雅”的小手脚——比如季末压货、对不断上升的保险损失视而不见，或者动用“饼干罐”储备——却可能成为走向彻头彻尾的造假的第一步。
