Warren Buffett Talks About His Outlook On Markets, Tax Reform, Pilot Flying J And More (Full) | CNBC

[@dezthomas11]

I always liked Buffet and admired his wisdom and humbleness, but after this interview I love him. Seeing him successfully deal with a jealous, malicious man like Joe has made my day.

[@johnscanlon3362]

Becky is a sharp interviewer. She allows her guests time to speak and then comes in with a relevant question that keeps the conversation going in a relevant direction. I also like her composure.

[@ghostl1124]

The only thing I have against Becky is that she leans left politically. However, she is a good interviewer.

[@FirstTeam4Comedy]

Every time Joe comes on to talk to Warren he interrupts the whole flow with some dumb ramble about nothing. Just waste every bodies time.

[@ianbernardoful]

FirstTeam4Comedy everybody's*

[@Mrbfgray]

forever WTF??

[@stemikger]

I totally agree. I really dislike this guy's style. I'm not sure why they even keep him on. I do love Becky Quick

[@Mrbfgray]

stephen geraci I like the fact that they have a diverse group of 'reporters', most of whom are pretty good at challenging the interviewees or at least asking pertinent questions. But some are much better than others, Becky IS very good and Joe just has trouble getting his thoughts into words--always, very hard to listen to often and I tune into them daily.

[@troynguyen1628]

I guess u know better, ur comment is low as your iq

[@toddcallen]

Joe from Squawk Box should refrain from interrupting everyone he interviews. It's rude and takes away from the person answering the questions. His whole persona is that of a clown. Get rid of that guy!

[@Trezker]

He made me angry... that kind of attitude really sets me off. I was enjoying the interview before that clown started talking.

[@jgmatp]

Warren likely thinks the same thing about that dude.

[@OmarDelawar]

He "Squawks" too much

[@ryanmelikian7452]

i think the dude wants everyone to think that hes good body with warren...typical media losers

[@josefinschwartz8309]

love interviews with Warren Buffet. makes my day!

[@sebastienpollak1777]

Could you elaborate on that? I never heard that story of how he never helped the people who made him rich before. I am being genuine and not at all trying to provoke you (sometimes conversation on youtube get a bit hostile, and I genuinely want to be educated about your point of view).

[@CJ-sg3fc]

Joe makes this interview unwatchable - how unfortunate.

[@treywhite7145]

I wish he was this articulate for another 20 years. I have learned so much from this man.

[@italianoemigrato8245]

Trey White me too !

[@ramzihammoud1876]

Its incredible that a pesron of nearly 90 yo still has that energy and still thinking about the market for the next 10 years

[@furdiebant]

Big fan of this interviewer, always very professional, clear and well informed!

[@furdiebant]

The first interviewer I mean

[@datni99any1]

Luv the Oracle!!.. One of the greatest investors of this century.

[@josepeso146]

Joe’s humor is disrespectful, senseless, and unfortunately common.

[@spaceflow03]

Agree!

[@Mrbfgray]

forever Are you high on something? What's the matter with you?

[@askformoreinfowhichyouwont7510]

Buffet handles Joes attacks masterfully, very nonhostile, patient. I am sure many would have gotten insulted but Buffet knows to keep his cool and turn a hostile confrontation and neutralize it. He doesnt even fire back, he tries to defuse, which I admire very much. Great skill and great things to learn from him.

[@daven7536]

Thanks Becky and Warren!! This was a great interview!! learned a lot and had a few good laughs.

[@bjkarana]

I always enjoy Mrs. Quick's talks with Warren; her questions are always sharp and insightful.

[@sandeepvk]

Those who speak fast think fast. for the first time I had to slow down the video to understand what Mr Buffet was saying

[@bigswim357]

This is like watching a drunk guy at a bar attack Warren Buffet..... Cringe worthy

[@craigdaubbeats-rapinstrume9185]

Flying Js is awesome. It's one of my favorite stops when traveling.

[@FarooqSattarsattarinsurance]

warren's advice have made me mad money. Thank you for sharing the wealth of Knowledge. Always looking out for great new content.

[@gastrobypasssurgerypatient9638]

This is a very interesting interview.

[@mattseager279]

Great interview. Taking losses before reform of the tax rates was particularly enlightening.

[@crystalbooks3624]

Warren Buffet for President!!!!!!

[@mrj-charles6383]

This guy Joe is a joke why would they even put him on the air? He can't even ask an intelligent question

[@katherinekunau6648]

I love WB ! Such passion in his delivery!

[@SumbaSlice]

get rid of Joe!

[@gastrobypasssurgerypatient9638]

GREAT INTERVIEWS I learned a lot.

[@eddiekuehnle1194]

Love how they are asking Buffet if Joe's volume is good in his ear and he says "Well it depends on what Joe asks if its ok." lmao

[@PresidentEvil]

hard to believe Becky is 45

[@inbreadfred4293]

If you don't get married or have kids.... you can look young for a long time.

[@self-lovingloser1108]

make-up and lighting,.

[@VoteWillows]

Aw man I love Buffet

[@tez830]

WB always keeps it real!

[@orpunlimited6570]

Great business man and I see him helping a lot of my people with their money I would love to pick his mind one day

[@KrishnaHarish]

This was unexpectedly fun 😊

[@iFreeThink]

College Station is still the gold standard for me. Fifth-world area.

[@bigshae1able]

Warren Buffet is hillarious. He put the spin on Joe and made him look foolish.

[@Alexandralijing]

It is so painful to hear Joe making any sort of arguments....

[@Mrbfgray]

Yeah he never makes his points well, can't seem to get his thoughts together. But I don't mind him challenging the interviewee.

[@iFreeThink]

Someone made a website with podcasts on food chemistry. Cal Poly has a Food Chemistry program.

[@iFreeThink]

I think my grandma loves how I speak English too. Because I played more music as an adult.

[@OakhillSailor]

I can't believe Melissa asked if lower tax rate could drive markets higher? What is her agenda & what kind of question is that? She must be looking for a headline.

[@askformoreinfowhichyouwont7510]

Buffet is a great inspiration and at the same time great assurance that buy and hold can work. It's just sad that there are few investors like him that come out and speak. I also think a person like Buffet should have run for President or Fed chairman a long time ago.

[@WeiweiCheng]

41:42 - Warren totally destroyed that guy!

[@Chiefmismaker]

Feedback from London - Please take Joe off the air. Becky deserves huge credit for humouring him when she must be dreadfully embarrassed.

[@nhanha7433]

If we expansion we need to keep certain equities and assets and also the cash flow or the currencies. If we protect the nation we also do the safe percentage capital must at central bank and local bank.

[@nhanha7433]

Most stuff we borrow from supplies. Pay back later. We pay some while the other pay back gradually. In the conditions we must able to do some things Ed lane rather than with the farms alone.

[@nhanha7433]

We fix the stuff correct those with print monies. To change Correct supplies and correct services to meet the majorities.

[@iFreeThink]

Have in-person teachers in Language Arts and Social Studies.

[@iFreeThink]

Arizona supports Filipinos more than me.

[@iFreeThink]

Yes. OKC. Owe them.

[@nhanha7433]

The manage lawful success. That will lead Dow increase in safe indicating points.

[@israelebed3757]

I know, its hard to get out of certain things once you open yourself up to them.

[@iFreeThink]

Many people don't do anything after the 1st grade. It'll boost productivity.

[@idansolon4715]

Where does he talk about taxes?

[@19billdong96]

“I sent you a brick... you’ve really not shown proper appreciation for it.” A sense of humor proportional to his intellect

[@iFreeThink]

Dubai even makes islands. Could connect Baja California with Mexico.

[@JapaneseStockInvestor]

He looks like a master Yoda.

[@iFreeThink]

Like I literally study hard because an AP Chem teacher told me she'd love to be a food chemist too.

[@chockumail]

He was correct on tax reform. I listened to him.

[@Bmayo27]

41:15 minute mark. If someone could be so kind as to attempt to simply this concept for me, I would greatly appreciate it!

[@jcrispy8181]

Becky has class. Warren is a good speaker, even with Joe doing some old fashioned trolling.

[@nhanha7433]

There are rules and laws. To ensure not spread damage.

[@rc892]

Buffett is a boss. Still backing passive investment over active!!!

[@mukul1310]

this Joe guy is a dingleberry

[@duanejackson6718]

It's always been my life's dream to own a trailer house it's in walking distance to a flying j truck stop.

[@pekarna]

Joe the clown sucks, but I think CNBC aspires to attract general public for which the regular serious talk would not be interesting. Actually Warren's joke in a reply to Joe, "if we bought a funeral agency, I would probably also be buried by it" made me laugh :) Still, the interruptions are not welcome.

[@nyonthefly]

He lets one rip at 8:55 lol

[@nhanha7433]

The consumers that lead us to figure out the change model manages.

[@stangtrax]

44:44

[@iFreeThink]

California has Filipinos as nurses and med techs. It's insane.

[@iFreeThink]

Of all companies, they keep on supporting Mike Tyson's face tattoo.

[@zz-jj9sc]

CNBC do the right thing and get rid of Joe.

[@pokerman9108]

Warren is just living the dream...

[@consandpiracytheories7222]

In the guy who put the new lifeform in mono lake. The first 7 element life found on earth came from my ranch

[@nhanha7433]

The bond that have term return. The stock you make your own decisions.

[@nhanha7433]

The Fed rate lending increase. When the stuff over growth that need to cub. The living cost increase that the majorities rate not meet for current limit supplies. The services cost increase not care for individual business and customers need fix thing or assistance.

[@muschek]

would be nice for a journalist to say which morning.

[@nhanha7433]

We will make the rail freight 300 miles per hours. While trucking businesses preserve but also require safety. Especially oil spill must control. Because the mass production. That might be out control at home and global scale.

[@nhanha7433]

We need to qualify the CEO. Because they the head of the group.

[@nhanha7433]

Rate low borrower. But the lenders not left behind. Market cap rise. But investor make portion earning while sale less and hold more share to meet development and projects goals.

[@AverageAngel]

Every time I see joe I fast forward until I don’t see him

[@moonchild6231]

So is he saying if the new Tax Plan passes that there is going to be a huge sell off of stocks by people wanting to take profits while the market is high? Won't that drive the market down?

[@BillyReedMusic]

Lol! Warren said, "NO solicitors allowed"!!!

[@nhanha7433]

Because the deal and activity involve

[@nhanha7433]

The more projects and developments the more social health for everyone must easy. Because it has good time and also bad time.

[@tensevo]

Buffett is one of the most hardcore capitalists I have come across. Putting asset allocation before family.

[@nhanha7433]

There are more factors did make merge but not over view the fail. The merge some merge no fail. While other merge because the fail prior and after the merge still have the fail. Because the neglect of the essential plans.

[@nhanha7433]

For him for important and growth big.

[@pumawombatDOG2]

Warren Buffet should be the most arrogant man alive but he's probably one of the best people to model your personality after.

[@dnanidref1]

That audio is terrible. So much noise

[@Albertthegreat2010]

How does Tesla affect Flying J financials knowing that UPS has just ordered millions worth of Electric semi trucks?

[@israelebed3757]

Seductive Reasoning

[@nhanha7433]

If make so much monies in projects and developments and investment. All income must report. So we build the middle class skill to keep the incidents low. And correct problems that hide under the rugs.

[@chriswu6800]

Buffett is right that the biggest companies don't need the tax cut, but what about the little guy? It is 15% up to 50k, then quickly go from there. By the time you get to 100k profit, it is already at 34%. That's not including all the other taxes and misc fees. Buffett pay more tax buy putting his holding under his personal tax instead of BRK. This way, he would pay the full 20% capital gain instead of getting most of them exempt from tax.

[@shankarjasti444]

I was thinking I am alone irritated by joe’s questions, I am not!!

[@israelebed3757]

Intelligent =Effective

[@BallisticRedneck]

"The fed is of enormous importance in a panic" the part he left out is the fed causes the panics.

[@paulwarren796]

JOHN KENNEDY WAS A HIGH QUALITY PERSON....pww

[@iFreeThink]

I could expand the US for what I need people to move to. Because the Philippines isn't willing to change until they move and learn about how to serve efficiently.

[@iFreeThink]

I learned English by listening to a lot of music.

[@alistairproductions]

Nothing wrong with leaving your children a billion . They could still be taught discipline compassion etc and you’d have the resources to make sure they are even with their extreme wealth and society could benefit from their business contributions . Just handing it out to charities that won’t use it properly is dumb

[@SaurabhTiwari08]

Buffet - I will sent you a brick 😂😂😂

[@nhanha7433]

And they also have leverage

[@snowfirel7108]

Did Mr Buffet just say, in regards to Berkshire, "every single share is going to be given away"? Won't buy it then, I would not want to loose my shares, he should clarify what he just said, scary.

[@jgmatp]

every share he owns, given to charity, etc. would not affect valuation.
