Buffett is pretty much the exact opposite of a boglehead. Buffett's strategy is to only pick winners. Jack Bogle was in the portfolio theory camp, buying companies regardless of if they appeared good or bad. Both can be profitable, but the boglehead strategy is much easier to do.

Apple at $1000 is not a winner. GameStop at $1 is a winner. If you are Buffet you can start doubting the price that the market sets for the stock. If you are a normal person you will probably be wrong more often than the market so don't bother contradicting it.
Buffett only invests in businesses he likes or could come to like. The best example recently is his divesting of airlines as he realized he no longer loved the business.
