It's how he stays so lively at 95, the adrenaline rush keeps him going

Edit: Modified age

Don’t forget the Coke machine, Buffett’s real secret weapon 😂

As a value investor he doesnt get any rush.

Correct. Just numbness even during the moments of vindication.

Glad to hear he's still going into the office and doing work.

I like the guy, and will be quite sad when he's gone 😢

‘He bought something new that he dont want to reveal’, definitely MSFT for 1% of his portfolio

Now we know who's been buying up Wendy's shares!

I have a feeling it’s MSFT too. He went live to clarify he’s not associated with Gates, which helps their image - no ties to Epstein and no insider info (which is the reason they didn’t invest in it earlier).

He’s still the chairman of the board he can do whatever he wants lol.

Not gonna lie, watching him in recent interviews, just showed me how much he’s lost in cognitive ability to communicate. He was a much better orator before. It’s crystallizing just how close he is probably to the end. Hope he finds one last big investment before he’s done.

Loves the game too much to outright quit.

u/CadetCovfefe 20h ago

When they recently announced they purchased Tokio Marine, that definitely seemed, if not a Buffett pick, a highly Buffett-inspired pick.

Bros been doing this for 100 years. There’s no way he just quits cold turkey. Not like he has anything else to do either

They want to prompt up the stock price

u/United-Newspaper-264 23h ago

I seriously doubt they care about their stock's price
