Page 6: Top 20 quotes from Charles Schwab

There is nothing else that so kills the ambitions

ofa person as criticism from superiors. I never

criticize anyone. I believe in giving a person

incentive to work. So I am anxious to praise

but loath to find fault. If I like anything, I am

hearty in my appreciation and lavish in my

praise

I did as much as I could: raising chickens,

pushing an ice-cream cart, bagging walnuts,

driving a tractor on a beet farm, working on

the railroad. I think this eclectic career helped

me a lot in life.

Page 12: Top 20 quotes from Charles Schwab

I bluffed my way through much of it, I’m sure.

Fortunately, I have a pretty ‘up’ personality,

and that helped me all the way through. I tried

hard and I had pretty good communication

skills, so I could persuade my teachers that I

was a pretty good kid.

To sit down with a blank piece of paper and

write was the most traumatic thing that had

ever faced me in life. I had ideas in my head,

but I could not get the stuff down. It was a

crushing time.

explain why. I just thought that if I worked

harder, maybe something would happen.

Page 15: Top 20 quotes from Charles Schwab

We brought prices down, down, down so they are

now essentially commodities. So if we want to

succeed in this business, we have to move in a

direction of adding other value to the relationship

with our clients. And so where I might have said 15

years ago, 'We want to be the best discount

brokerage,' today I want to be the best 'relationship

company' in financial services.

You've got to understand that markets go both

ways, up and down. Over longer periods,

any specific stock may never come back.
