I don't blame Warren Buffett for choosing to step down and retire as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway at the end of the year.

This economy is a house of cards that's about to blow over.

Plus, he's 94!

I love Warren Buffett!

pip-kin.bsky.social•3 days ago

The guy is 94.

Who could possibly blame him for retiring ?

sashat.bsky.social•3 days ago

💯

trifidofcanada.bsky.social•3 days ago

He's also 94, he's earned some time off.

landon68.bsky.social•3 days ago

He’s making a run for it, because he knows….he knows.

mimimm70.bsky.social•3 days ago

He’s 94.

missscarlett22.bsky.social•3 days ago

The dude is 94. He's doing the responsible thing. Btw Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) stock is at an all time high... even in this tariff-laden environment.

mimilove58.bsky.social•2 days ago

The man is 94 yo, he deserves to retire. 🥰

albertsquest.bsky.social•2 days ago

He knows the game is over. No way we get back on our feet in the time he has left.

lyndishere.bsky.social•2 days ago

And to his unshakable credit, he's put in his time.

samcrut.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm pretty sure Warren resigning means Capitalism is ending.

alexanderbeetle.bsky.social•3 days ago

Plus 94

lindalouwhoblue.bsky.social•3 days ago

Good God, how long does the man have to work before he gets a chance to retire because he's old? God bless him and may he live long and prosper.

kimmurphy100.bsky.social•3 days ago

I don’t blame him because he’s 94 and it’s his company.

Should businessmen be able to go on forever, and not politicians?

xraynaqueen.bsky.social•3 days ago

a great man.

irishbynature.bsky.social•3 days ago

And Warren Buffett will be fine. He isn't sweatin' it.

leor72.bsky.social•3 days ago

He’s been thru worse. He’s quitting because of age, not Trump

riff.is.djing.fyi•3 days ago

not like he needs the money is it?

cooperhamilton.bsky.social•2 days ago

Well that and he is 94. Might be time to take up golf.

Warren Buffett: WE WANT A PROSPEROUS WORLD. Not a trade war.

He didn't say we want a president who is so corrupt that it would make the devil himself blush. Aussie here🦘💙

algsc78.bsky.social•3 days ago

The man knows his business. Even at 94, he could run circles around Trump.

bunnystars500.bsky.social•3 days ago

And the dude is a million years old 🤪

peggyrose.bsky.social•2 days ago

Plus, he’s past retirement age.

david0100100100.bsky.social•3 days ago

I bet the plans to divest and retire were made prior to Dumpster’s 100 days.

kitchieg.bsky.social•3 days ago

He's 94.

oldsnowflake.bsky.social•3 days ago

And he's 94.

bakerbrown6.bsky.social•3 days ago

Facts. I am almost in disbelief at how things are going. The auto industry, the farmers, the small businesses, and even the big businesses… this is not sustainable. He is tanking everything. Our trade partners have been working with other countries

My daughter used to work for Berkshire Hathaway Guard. They flew her to Pennsylvania to train her, (all expenses paid) had their employee Christmas party in the Poconos at a resort called Kalahari. She even got to take a plus 1 and it was an all-expense paid trip. (I was her plus one) they gave…

angrymomma.bsky.social•3 days ago

The employees “gifts”her gift was a pair of black UGG boots. That she gave me as a birthday present. It was sooo nice. Lots of happy employees there. It was the first time I had flown on an airplane ✈️

nobodyiseveryone.bsky.social•3 days ago

He sold off $133b the past 6 months

He's getting up there. Good ol' guy!

Herbert Hoover economics on steroids.

Make that two...at the rate the US economy is going down right now.

zhurd1635.bsky.social•3 days ago

The dudes 94. I don’t think the economy has shit to do with it.

oasisthemepark.bsky.social•3 days ago

You are 100% correct. The 2016 CFPB stalled doing its job. The 2017 CFPB closed the five cases & shutdown the investigations. JP Morgan decided to use the AZ Court to attack me. The 2025 IRS decided to attack me.
I informed Special Agent Stacey Moy at the San Diego FBI. OTP vp

oasisthemepark.bsky.social•3 days ago

In 2017 the con man chose himself over the United States.
Sadly a lot of United States government agencies chose the con man over the United States a long time ago.
See for yourself. Con man's frauds & hoaxes weren't stopped. OTP vp

With all the accolades no one has ever taken Buffett to task for his investments in coal & fossil fuels. He reaps rewards from energy companies & gives money to the Gates organization who tries to address the impact of climate change especially via world health.

kitchieg.bsky.social•3 days ago

So a good balance then.

kirkdamico.bsky.social•2 days ago

Ha! Yes but it might make more sense to close the coal plants in the first instance.

jessej468.bsky.social•3 days ago

Shows that he's ready to bail and run before he drowns with the rest of us.

rita558.bsky.social•3 days ago

This will be good 🫣

d3s4.bsky.social•3 days ago

He is 94....

gandalfpc.bsky.social•3 days ago

With more nouse than you.

jessej468.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yes, he's been there a very long time. But he knows when to bow out.

mntgrl.bsky.social•3 days ago

The man is 94! People. Give the man a break. #WarrenBuffett

artstudio322.bsky.social•3 days ago

Well, he is 94. Maybe he just wants to rest.

d3s4.bsky.social•3 days ago

Selinity is the way

tylerflowersshow.bsky.social•3 days ago

he’s also 94

j-lastcoolletter.bsky.social•3 days ago

Right? Like, who would blame him for ... anything? If I live to be 94, I would expect to be Thanos-snapped on any given day and be grateful to make it to 95.

Well look @ he's age ¡

neolamace.bsky.social•3 days ago

He always did have excellent timing

ambionesc.bsky.social•3 days ago

Trump's economy has done nothing to improve America's economy. Instead, it will head towards a second Great Depression, and they have nothing to blame but themselves who voted for the downfall of Western civilization by fascists, racists, bigots, and criminals.

kitchieg.bsky.social•3 days ago

Well Warren Buffet didn't vote for him.

rpander9.bsky.social•3 days ago

He is also 94 years old , he can afford to take some time off

jenish.bsky.social•3 days ago

He’s 94. He should’ve stepped down 10 years ago. He’s a warped old man whose obsession with making money left millions of his workers barely making it. Don’t lionize him. There are no good billionaires. The sooner people realize this, the better.

mortalbeing8.bsky.social•3 days ago

he also helped a lot of people.

jenish.bsky.social•3 days ago

I worked for one of his companies, and there were no raises for eight years. He kept people in near poverty.

kitchieg.bsky.social•3 days ago

Just because he invests in a company that doesn't make it his company. He doesn't run the world. Buffet treats his employees at Hathaway very well.

jenish.bsky.social•2 days ago

I worked at BH Media. It was a shitshow. He bought up newspapers and gutted them. He went a long way to destroy the free press. Don’t idolize a man who made billions off the back of this country. I can’t convince you, but think instead of swallowing the good buzz his PR folks have spun for years.

pollojack.bsky.social•2 days ago

Carnegie also helped people, not that great of a rich guy.

Hathaway is also one of the companies that bought up housing, increasing housing prices.

Some good some bad.

kitchieg.bsky.social•3 days ago

Well he's 94. He probably deserves to retire now regardless.

psychobob4q2.bsky.social•3 days ago

I am sure he needs his social security benefits to get by.

vglntgrandma.bsky.social•3 days ago

But also, he’s a smart man and knows it’s time to pass the baton. I wish our politicians knew when to move on.

steve-bs.bsky.social•3 days ago

That's ridiculous. He's not stepping down due to any issues with the US or global economies, no matter how bad they are. He's been through it all successfully. He's the boss, but he's 94. Let him retire clean.

auntiemamelives.bsky.social•2 days ago

Also, I believe his company has become infiltrated with MAGAs. I'd leave too

rlsiii.bsky.social•3 days ago

he's mostly cash right now

bakerbrown6.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yeah he has been selling stock for quite some time. I always look at what these guys DO. As apposed to what they say. They will tell you that the stock market is fine even as they are getting out.

huckdillinger.bsky.social•2 days ago

He has already said that tRump’s tarrifs will destabilize the global economy and that’s why he’s in cash. He’s not an ass kisser like most of them.

mcdjtomorrows.bsky.social•3 days ago

Billionaires have no place on this planet. Or any other planet.

kitchieg.bsky.social•3 days ago

He's a philanthropist. He is also self made. He deserves a place at the table.

mcdjtomorrows.bsky.social•2 days ago

Anyone with more than $10,000,000 is not generous. It’s just vanity.The most wealthy could actually solve so many social problems. They just don’t want to because they don’t actually care. They care more about being wealthy.

lenticulus.bsky.social•3 days ago

Makes sense. He can still manage his own investments as long as he wants.

But in this unprecedented chaotic mess before us, what honest person would promise to be responsible for growing other people’s money?

d3s4.bsky.social•3 days ago

He is 94...

Senility for all !

Tot Uber Alles

gandalfpc.bsky.social•3 days ago

If he was senile he wouldn't be doing this. On the other hand Trump is senile.

lenticulus.bsky.social•3 days ago

John Williams is still composing and conducting at 93.

Dick Van Dyke is 99 and still entertaining fans.

kitchieg.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm sure Buffet isn't going to stop doing things either. He is just stepping down from his company.

humanity101.bsky.social•3 days ago

cabbageridge.bsky.social•2 days ago

I have seen this post so many times. Look at the portfolio that have. Most of not all are quite profitable and pay dividends. He doesn’t invest only to see stock prices rise. He is also sitting on a ton of cash after taking profits on Apple and dumping losers. At 95 he’s well aware

notlookinganymore.bsky.social•3 days ago

Dude had rocked it for 94 yrs. Fair winds and calm seas

cassagogo.bsky.social•2 days ago

Old people should be allowed to retire, no matter what their job, without needing to justify it.

irishwhisky24.bsky.social•3 days ago

It's not like he needs the money

asrivers.bsky.social•2 days ago

And he’s 94. Needs some time to retire. He’s what a corporate CEO should be

svetipetarreal.bsky.social•3 days ago

Communism or oligarchy/monopoly over virtual money entered the USA in the 1980s.

While socialism was still in the US in the 1950s to the 1980s, people traveled to the moon.

Since communism or monopoly/oligopoly is over virtual capital in the US, people have become Trump MAGA RFK & Russia.

2learnmore.bsky.social•3 days ago

He is stepping down, but still going to be in the picture. Remarkable man.

anson343.bsky.social•3 days ago

He's 94, long suffering money addict best that I can tell and most likely autistic.

flaminghellhole.com•3 days ago

And yet he knows when it is time to step down. Unlike many of our elected "representatives"

davidsamuelauer.bsky.social•3 days ago

I was thinking the exact same thing. #ThanksTrump
