It is so simple.... Why have to be driven by envy? Why not helping each other.... There is always someone getting richer than you. Wise man indeed.

[@R.I.S.69]

Just Release The Whole Thing Already 😂

[@cheongwenpa]

I like Charles's closing remark "it's so simple". The reality is , IT IS !!!!

[@JoeReid10001]

I find it difficult to express how immense my respect Mr. Munger is and it only grows each year.

[@wahlverwandt]

@Chad Abercrombie this question Alone Shows your Limitations

[@Andy-no9zl]

Charlie is a man of logic and wisdom. He is absolutely right about how we should view others success

[@chiaweinam]

He had to end your interview because he is not interested in your propaganda.

[@timcasady4750]

@Chad Abercrombie Why are you so negative toward Charlie Munger ?

[@xushenxin]

Wise man, a lot more wise than politicians.

[@davadh]

"We had to end the interview because he was busy" Oh, so not because his viewpoint favors China. Got it

[@christopher399]

Correct, because he's been on their shows many times, so they already know where he stands and wouldn't have him on their show, or ask him about China, if they couldn't handle his views.

[@menderiic0895]

Still busy at 3am interview. What a productive human.

[@menderiic0895]

Man at 98, an investor, lawyer, architect and a world war 2 veteran. Hats off to Charlie!

[@UnknownUnknown-hg7xg]

He was a meteorologist in WW2 lol. Later he adapted his methods of predicting weather patterns to the stock market.

[@menderiic0895]

@@UnknownUnknown-hg7xg Well he served World War 2 does it make him a veteran? LOL.

[@BrunoFalconi]

[@andrewlee1275]

Incredible how lucid Sir Charlie Munger is at the ripe age of 98! Probably more cleared eyed than the government. What a treasure. Hope he live forever and hope china appreciate how great a civilization US is and how it prospered through 70 years of peace installed by US. US is basically the grandfather and China was still a child until now. The way I see it.

[@user-ze3dt2td9q]

世界历史上只有两大文明，那就是欧亚文明，你们美国200多年的历史只能叫文化，不能叫文明。就短短200多年的历史既不伟大也不灿烂，反而充满了血腥和屠杀。2000多万印第安原住民被种族灭绝，大量墨西哥人被压迫，抢占别人的领土，挑拨离间、欺骗、盗窃、颠覆别国政权，毫无道德文明、毫无人类最低的良知和底线，一包洗衣粉就能让几千万人失去亲人、失去家园，然后还好意思不要脸说:虽然他们失去了一切，但他们拥有了自由....如果这算文明简直是人类文明的悲哀！

[@DineshTwanabasu]

It means you dont know the history and civilization of china. Your idea is US which is 250 years civilization is a father of china which has over 5000 years of history.

[@tslaEnglish]

Why is this CNBC channel's caption always come with a latency (that it didn't even follow up when the video is ended) and in UPPER case only format? Something puzzling me for years.

[@organizer14]

He is wiser than most politicians and military.

[@organizer14]

Charles M is very wise and courageous!American leaders are able to hear him the American people will suffer much less loss. History will show he is courageous and wise to remind Congressional leaders and administration of what they need to hear. Thank you Charles M. May you always be blessed❤!

It's year 2070. Berkshire Hathaway is officially nationalized by the CCP and becomes one of the CCP's state run company. What are you talking about, Mr. Munger? Look at what happened to Jack Ma
