There's little question that Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett is on the short list of the most successful investors ever. In over five decades at the helm of the company, the legendary investor has shown his staying power. During his 58-year tenure, the so-called "Oracle of Omaha" has helped Berkshire Hathaway stock climb nearly 20% annually and, in all, has soared a mind-boggling 3,787,464%. Given the results, investors could do worse than following his example.

Let's look at what investors may be missing that makes this a no-brainer stock to buy with $100 right now.
