This title "Warren Buffett: It's Insane To Risk What You Have For Something You Don't Need | CNBC" is probably mismatched. Please fix.

Mr Bufett is the BEST - a true gentleman and a scholar, this is what ppl should emulate as Midwest American role model, btw it is got nothing to do with his success and $$$, he is great because of his intellect, knowledge and humility

We often risk things we always want. Good advice Buffett.

The market decides on guns - If you don't want to invest in guns don't buy them - it is asinine to own gun makers then ask them to stop making guns. Just don't own them if you disagree with guns.

Where in the entire video does Buffett say " It's Insane To Risk What You Have For Something You Don't Need" as the title suggests?

For those saying business and politics shouldn't mix: in what world are you living? Politics obviously affect everything in our life.

She is trying SO HARD to bait Buffett into the hard left stance NBC however kept stressing the need to be careful in business. And to NOT go down that political road. KUDOS to Mr Buffett.

[asolano]

He didn't say that in this video. Can you fix the title?

[andychang]

I believe that is probably Coke in Warren's glass. Super funny hearing his daughter say she's never seen him drink water.

[IIIIALBYIIII]

How long does this guy stay old....it feels like forever.

Buffet Birkshire is also buying Sirius XM (SIRI) as well. It is a stock that is going from $6 to $30 in 5 years just like Bank of America did.

her voice is turning more and more into the voice of Warren

Summary of this video : Business, Ethics and politics should all be separated

[debralegorreta]

Wall Street's answer: risk what's not yours for something you don't need.

[dandan]

Interesting video, but the video title does not line up with that Buffett discusses here.

[mactastic]

You should tell the telecommunications companies this.

Warren Buffett teaches me something every time I listen. I Want to know the name of the lady who is telling us to click on any other interviews around me. She's beautiful.
