Charlie Munger: When Warren and I were starting 'I never thought we would ever get to $100 million'

In this last interview you can really see that age was finally catching up to him. He was so sharp even to the very end. RIP.

His mind is still sharp it's just his articulation was waning. My neighbour is 92 and while she is crocked, her mind is as sharp as a pin. Young at heart!

I just want to point out that, while a few weeks from death, this man got up in the morning, put his suit on and went to CNBC to give an interview. I can only hope to still be doing that at 99, and up to my damn near last day. What a man.

[@decus9544]

I never met him personally, but after everything, after so many years of everything he's done for Berkshire and everything he's said during the investor conferences, it honestly feels like I've lost a friend today. He will be deeply missed. Truly one of a kind, Rest In Peace Charlie.

Great conversation Becky. Thank you. Prayers to family and to Warren.

[@tonysilke]

Munger and Buffett have both achieved an incredible feat with Berkshire. They've turned thousands to billions, and have made a lot of people wealthy in the process. I really saw the potential of the stock market by reading Berkshire's annual letters. I recently sold my $674k apartment in the Bel Air area and I'm hoping to throw it into the stock market. I just don't want to lose everything.

[@hankmarks69]

Most people either do not understand the power of compound interest, or are just impatient. For the average Joe, however, I think it is just best to invest in the S&P 500, and just wait, which is reliable, albeit extremely long-- lots of years. Or just use a professional analyst and speed up wealth creation. Most people underestimate the power of the latter.

[@PhilipDunk]

I agree with you. I started out with investing on my own, but I lost a lot of money. I was able to pull out about $200k after the 2020 crash. I invested the money using an analyst, and in seven months, I raked in almost $673,000

The amount of emotion that’s been displayed by so many different people shows just how loved Charlie was.

What personal tragedy?

[@JohnPMiller]

His wife divorced him, took his three children and house, and left him penniless. His 9-year-old son died from leukemia. He had a botched cataract surgery that required removal of one eye and left him nearly blind in the other. All of this happened when he was 40-50 years old.

. It has always made sense that him and Warren would support traditional investment companies and not venture much into AI, crypto etc investments.
