Startups.co, a Columbus, Ohio-based angel investor network, pulled together the words of wisdom of legendary billionaire investors -- everyone from Warren Buffett to Carl Ichan offers up advice. If you are going to take recommendations on how to plan your business and live your life, that's a pretty rock solid group of elites to gain insight from.
