Berkshire Hathaway owns every other company in the world....
No matter what you buy, he makes money.... including Blackrock and the others... even a % of Amazon....
Seems like the New York times has bought into the US news addiction to the glorification of billionaires. Why should anyone care what Warren Buffett does?
Congratulations to the legend and icon #WarrenBuffett. What you’ve taught investors and other topics worldwide will be used for generations. #BerkshireHathaway It’s one of the greatest companies in world history. I’m grateful you'll still be around. You deserve this, Mr. #Buffett.
All you had to do was pay attention. He was selling massive amounts of stock at the height of the Harris-Biden economic rebound and stockpiling massive amts of cash knowing full well Trump and the Republicans would come and f**k it all up like they always do. The Oracle knew.
Matthew 19:23-24:
"Truly I tell you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
He’s just slow, methodical, and prudent. No need to jump on the new train if the old one works. I came into some cash. I placed half with BRK and the other half with Elon. This was before Elon shii the bed. BRK has almost tripled while TSLA lost. It taught me a viable lesson moving forward.
I’m sure he’s been a part of some shady things to get where he is.
With his remaining years, if he leaves his estate to causes like housing the less fortunate and helps some candidates that can upend the system, then there is a silver lining.
Curious. I thought he will leave feet first, still trying to make a buck until a minute before he meets his Maker and serving as a poster boy for America’s all consuming greed
About time the guy got to live his bucket list. Last I heard going around incognito and leaving big tips to service workers, students, and gleefully riding trains was on that list...
Life in a wheelchair isn’t always easy, but I’m determined to keep moving forward. I’m fundraising for an enclosed mobility scooter to stay active, independent, and connected. Every bit of help counts. Your kindness fuels my journey. Details on my GoFundMe. A share or gift. https://gofund.me/0af928df
Fuck Him, He says a lot of Fucking Garbage, and him wanting to pay a fair tax is definitely one of them!! He's a big FUCKING REASON trickle down doesn't work!! The hoarding of wealth is exactly Not trickle down. Go on X to kiss rich balls.
He’ll still be a fucking billionaire until he die. There are people dying all over the country; who gives a shit what he does because he doesn’t give a shit about us.
Buffet is expecting a full out depression. It’s a good time to back out. If I knew how, I would transfer all my funds to a foreign bank. I’ve lost $1,000’s already.
i was born to rummage around earth looking for tickets to exchange for things i need and perpetually come up short. it’s cool that what could be the most beautiful experience is just a lot of people missing the point due to a ticket fetish, getting old and then crying from regret as they die.
I will always remember him saying he thought our tax system was so unfair & needed changing because his secretary had to pay more in taxes than he did! Then there are the other rich SOBs who did everything they could to get Trump in office to lower their taxes again, the good of the world be damned!
He is an honorable man who made money according to the rule of law and he was also willing to pay his fair share of taxes if the law deemed it should be so.
Fair. Few people achieve anything truly on their own. I was only trying to point out that, among billionaires, he is one of very few who didn’t start as a millionaire.
Only employees should be able to hold stocks in the companies they work for. Stock is the paper representation of the goods/services (stock, from "livestock") made by the workers, the profit should be theirs. It's def not "self made" by the investor, in any case
They should be given grants for free by the government, allowed to receive donations, or allowed to pre-sell items or packages to raise funds.
The tractor would be notably cheaper to buy bc there wouldnt be "investors" leaching capital from THAT company, inflating the price, down the supply chain
After a lot of consideration, I have decided that I will accept a position as his replacement. I expect my acceptance is in the mail, it's just been delayed.
He could fund PBS. He could help end the housing crisis. He could feed the hungry. He could help end the medical debt crisis. I like Warren Buffet but he is another billionaire.
Why can't PBS fund itself? Don't they have executives there making 6 figure salaries? What are they there for if they can't find a solution other than constant fundraisers on TV?
I'm not even going to dignify this with a legitimate response. They're funded by listeners like me or viewers like me in case of PBS but npr's in the same category
Old hoarder steps down after years of gluttony and greed.
Is gluttony and greed really something to laud? I mean, you can see quite clearly where we are now because of it. Especially in DC
If his successor does not share the same ethos,
that cash will do irreparable harm to what's left
of the middle class when employed for maximum
profit.
Had the absolute pleasure to talk with him one on one about 9 years ago. A genuinely decent human being. Also a very great person to work for. Enjoy a well earned, and hopefully long, retirement sir!
He's also made Billions for horrible people who hoard wealth while the average human slips further away from a secure source of food, housing, jobs , Health Care. Fuck off and Get Off your knees for old rich white bastards, or grovel in quite.
Buffett is the one guy who can put the lie to the avalanche of ads on TV shilling for financial advisors. His advice for years has been, do it yourself. Call the 800 number and set up an IRA with an low fee index fund. No advisor needed. Buy and hold.
I hope he has chosen his successor well. Him and Mark Cuban are the only rich guys I actually listen to. By the way Buffett has nothing good to say about crypto currency
I get what this is saying but he did have a polyamorpus relationship with his wife and then a 2nd other woman, it was a long term relationship though for both and he wasn't sleeping around afaik
Maybe start giving your billions away. Not to me or any simgle other person, but for the greater good of millions of people out there. Can't take it with you.
It’s probably in the plan. If I remember correctly, he has no intentions of leaving his wealth to his children. He expected them to build themselves up. I’m sure there will be some money for them, but probably not what we think. They’ll be fine, I’m sure.
How much do you love your country & freedom? Are you willing to fight for it? Are you willing to lose your slave wage jobs, starve, suffer the cold, bleed, & die for it?
Serious business, put your money where your mouth is, speak out, arm up, & show out. I dare you to be an American and live free.
My understanding is that Buffett is going to give his entire wealth to charity when he dies. And he's 94, so that's not going to be in the too distant future.

127 or something?
Maybe our politicians could take a page out of his book. . .
"Truly I tell you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
As a former Catholic. I couldn’t begin to say how irrelevant the Bible is.
I’m so tired of it being quoted. 5% or less of Christian’s, especially in America, actually live by Christ’s teachings. It’s tired and phony.
“Thoughts and prayers.”
With his remaining years, if he leaves his estate to causes like housing the less fortunate and helps some candidates that can upend the system, then there is a silver lining.

They do not have the money, but a tractor would, if the farmer is a moral, fair person, greatly increase all their income.
Do you also oppose bank loans?

I have made money following Mr. Buffett, thank you Sir.
