OT Warren Buffett interview on bailout
 

I have admired him since approximately 1996, and own a bunch of his
company shares since 1997, in fact I have 96% of my stock investments
in Berkshire. So here's a very insightful interview where he explains
the need for bailout.

Should you have the chance, listen in on or read what John Gutfreund has had
to say in the last year about this mess.
The company he lead was one of the principals that got this rolling. They
"invented" mortgage backed securities.

I watched this interview and the guy obviously is pained by the conflict
between his great wealth and what is going to happen to average Americans.

I saw an article where he said if the bailout doesn't happen his buying of various
interests recently will make him look stupid. He has skin in the game.

Remember the people who had 96% in Enron? It pays to diversify.

Hmmm, interesting diversification policy. :)

Although with WB at the helm, you're probably as safe as you could
possibly hope for.

Keep in mind that Buffett has 99% of his money in Berkshire also. So
he is not one of those people who manage "other people's money" with
no downside for themselves.

I think that businesswise, he manages risk a lot better than I do. As
for fluctuations in his stock price in relaqtion to the value of the
business, I do not care too much. What I know is that I will not lose
everything. I do not think that what I am doing, is stupid. And I have
other assets besides berkshire, just not in stocks, such as house,
cash, euros etc.

At $138,500.00 a share, it wouldn't take many to make a bunch.

Berkshire is diversified. The comparison to Enron doesn't wash.
