98 and still a sharp knife. Kudos to Mr Munger!

[alexanderzuraff]

Charlie is the freaking man - you always do a great job with his interviews and let him finish his thoughts

[Zizook]

I actually tried tell my father to stay away from crypto at its peak, I'm 22 he's 50. He didn't listen and lost a few grand in the process.

I just love seeing Becky break out in laughter at Charlie’s comment. That made my day!😁
He’s a wise person and I like her interview.

[angcx]

Her interviews with Buffett and Munger are always great

[TheEvilDead]

Last year people were laughing at him for speaking the truth about crypto. I bet they aren't laughing now.

YOU WORK FOR 40YRS TO HAVE $1M IN YOUR
RETIREMENT, MEANWHILE SOME PEOPLE ARE PUTTING JUST $10K IN A MEME COIN FOR JUST FEW MONTHS AND NOW THEY ARE

"The country does not need a currency for kidnappers"

[quillowl]

i enjoy hearing the way Charlie Munger expresses his thoughts, refreshing

[edwinhargrave]

This man tells the truth and people better listen.

[Slide]

Wish Charlie was 50 years younger. We need a stabilizing voice for the long term now more than ever.

[frankagliotti]

I love Charlie Mungers wisdom, insight and character. Pearls of wisdom.

[MotivationInvest]

Munger is one of the wisest people in history, those who have listened to him have not lost money in the recent crash. This doesn't mean all crypto is bad, but understanding the madness is crowds is vital when investing,

[tandiep]

I LUV this man....tells it like it is Legend

[pav]

Can’t wait to watch the full, raw conversation. No need to summarize his thoughts, he chooses his words wisely

[josephjohn]

*EVERY FAMILY HAS THAT ONE PERSON WHO WILL BREAK THE FAMILY FINANCIAL STRUGGLE I HOPE I BECOME THE ONE ☺️... IN A FEW WEEKS I WAS ABLE TO PAY OFF MY DEBTS THROUGH INVESTING IN CRYPTO TRADING*

[hkrumble]

Becky knows how to talk to Charlie. She’s great. What a pro.

[steveg]

Old Charlie and Warren have made me a lot of money. Reputation is everything

[JohnSmith-iljn]

Does a 98-year-old know more about life and money than a 22-year-old? You do the math.

[gomax]

To this day I still don't get why crypto is worth anything. I agree with Charlie. When people ask me is Bitcoin a good price at $16, 000, I still say the same thing it doesn't exist in reality it doesn't make anything doesn't make money I can't tell you why it's worth $16, 000 let alone $2.
