Altucher calls Warren Buffett a F-----g liar

Yeah, i wouldn't listen to anything Buffett says these days. Mostly self serving stuff on why you should hold your stocks forever and boasts on how he ripped off the owners of companies that he bought.

Yeah. Its funny seeing everyone buying into the buffett myth. Heck one guy brags that he only pays himself a $100k salary. Lol!

Who is 'everyone'? I don't know anyone buying into any sort of myth regarding Buffet.

You mean like the myth he only owns a tiny house in Omaha and earns $100k per year??

LMFAO!

My belief is that he will be shamed and perhaps vilified before his time is over on this planet.

That video is nonsense. Just because Buffett's preferred holding period is "forever" (simply meaning long term) doesn't mean it necessarily always gets to be that way. So this is the entire premise of this guy's book? A nonsensical "gotcha?"

And what's with the hair?

Have you ever considered the themes playing in your mind are speculation and projection of what's already on your mind?

In this case ...perhaps your fears?

Rather than beliefs anchored by facts supported by tangible real world actions and events?
 
Speaking of facts ...your strongest supporter claims... 90% of the posts on The Surf Report are from surf haters.

How's that possible?

Why? Because he pledged to give most of his substantial fortune to charity or because he won't return your phone calls? Meanwhile, guys like Sykes, Williams and Altucher are your heroes because they give you the time of day?
 
Altucher certainly has a point that there may be a huge difference between the public figure Warren Buffett and the real person. You do not get 65 billions by simply being the nice guy, at least not as nice as he wants us to believe.

Have you all forgot that Buffett is in favor of a transaction tax? Of course Buffett is fully aware that such a tax would cripple numerous smaller traders while he and guys like him would be either exempt or able to circumvent such a tax. Does that sound nice to you?

Great points. The guy is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
