Warren Buffett says famous hedge-fund bet delivered this unexpected lesson

ironchef said:
My questions to you and the ET professionals are:

1. If my time horizon is 20-30 yrs, why don't I put everything into the asset class with the highest return (for example RUT rather than DIA or SPY)?

2. If over most 20-30 yrs period, RUT consistently beats DIA, why is the measure of risks consistently higher for RUT?

3. Is Beta the correct measure of risk if not what should I use?

Is YOUR 20-30 yr time frame going to mirror history ?
 
Reading some of the Oracles commentary this year , he really lays into the media for misrepresenting financials and their panic driven 'breathless commentary'

Wonder what financial network he has in mind.
