The truth is that everybody wants to be financially independent and live a better life. With savvy investing, an inexpensive lifestyle, and diligent budgeting, this is not difficult to do. I'm glad I realized early on that achieving financial freedom requires hard work.

I love how Charlie is just chilling and starts eating his peanut brittle..lol

Warren immediately makes the point that I was thinking about too, Apple is not 35% of Berkshire's portfolio. So many ppl forget that Berkshire has hundreds of billions of dollars in value from wholly owned businesses like BNSF, Geico, Sees Candy, Duracell, Dairy Queen, etc.

Most ppl only see the publically traded companies and forget all the privately owned businesses that are also part of Berkshire's portfolio.

Charlie Is so funny when he gets straight to the point.

WB is a brilliant investor. The most brilliant of our time. Even he makes mistakes. He said "selling those shares of apple was dumb." So even he has regrets as an investor. It's kind of refreshing to know that the big dogs make mistakes too. We always tend to think they're perfect because they're so well off.

My favorite part of the video is Charlie smacking on whatever he’s eating. Love how chill these guys are.

Charlie is the grandpa you’d want to have.

Roughly £120k in my portfolio are in tech/TSLA stocks, can I get an advice on any other stocks that I can acquire to diversify my reserve across multiple markets while creating a comprehensive portfolio allocation that balances my concerns of risk aversion and returns that meet yearly inflation.

Charlie is correct most people don’t know the limitations of their knowledge.

If you’re not smart enough to know a good business from a bad business you shouldn’t be buying individual common stock.

I started investing in the stock market because of dividends. What matters, in my opinion, is that if you invest and earn more money in addition to dividends, you will be able to live off of dividends without selling. It implies that you can pass that on to your children, giving them a head start in life. I've invested over $600k in dividend stocks over the years; I continue to buy more today and will continue to do so until the price lowers even further.

The man eating into the mic was a nice touch

Working with a financial expert could truly set you up for life. I'm delighted I was able to contact my coach Karim .E. Karim earlier this year because while others were busy whining about the downturn I was busy cashing out finally making over 370k only for the first quarter of the year.

Charlie smacking in the mic is so funny to me

[vicweast]

I am going to miss listening to these two guys... They are the best

[Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy]

"De-Worsification" Haha, I love it.

[Erikkurilla]

There might be an economical turmoil but there is no doubt that this is still the best time to invest.

[quannga]

I love it. One man keeps talking, the other keeps munching away his snack.

[SaurabhAmbekar]

What was Munger’s comment in the beginning? Couldn’t catch it.

[prism]

They really need to get Statler and Waldorf to sit in for these guys sometime, or at least give the intro.

[arigutman]

Apple is by far the best stock an investor can own, change my mind!
