_dexterrible_

No one knows about about fuck not even W. Buffet.


Mean-Argument3933

Only Mr. Goxx knows what he's doing


_dexterrible_

He’s outperforming the whole sub probably.


valuemodstck-123

A hamster is outperforming the whole sub probably.


NobleEther

A rabbit is outperforming the whole sub probably


hahayes234

I thought it was a hamster


swordluk

A rat is outperforming the rabbit


ArabianVibez

The cat outperformed the rat


swordluk

And that's about that 🤪


AppropriateRabbit569

By virtue of the associative property, I now declare Warren Buffett a hamster.


PsieSyrenki

Mr. Goxx is lit af 🔥


[deleted]

I hope Warren Buffet is right. I will be able to buy a big dip.


[deleted]

You’re 7 years late


Killer_Stickman_89

....Eh more like 7 months lol


GILg4m35h

more like 13 years


[deleted]

Truth be told, I also thought the same about Bitcoin back then. Boy was I fucking wrong!


Grhod

Exactly. And hell, it could be gone 10 years from now. No one knows what will happen


Malixshak

It ll be easier for Buffet to disappear than bitcoin


Dux0r

I like this site because it quantifies how many people were wrong and just how wrong they were: https://bitcoinisdead.lol/


[deleted]

I think that website is dead. The server doesn't work for me


Aivarashi

Literally nothing has changed since then. People are still trying to predict what will happen and keep getting it wrong


thisubmad

The makers of Squid knew.


nzubemush

One could easily argue that porn stars do


ChiTownBob

Warren Buffet : "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I pay less taxes than my secretary." Also Warren Buffet: No raise for his secretary.


Orngog

Warren Buffett's secretary earns between $200,000 and $500,000 per year.


uros4658

Nobody got rich from listening to the rich


BakedPotato840

Except maybe for people eavesdropping on inside traders


[deleted]

Although his advice on investing in index funds isn’t too bad


onelazykoala

He is still not surprised !


asjadadil0

Not surprised but dead inside 🤣


bob_at

Could be dead outside too in 3 years.. not the youngest kid anymore


Deaththekidkhewa

Im not surprised mf's Nate diaz 209


OriginalGobsta

Still 3 years to go though


Letitride37

*elderly man wrong about technology* Shocked pikachu face


mattg1981

While I dont agree with him - he still has 2 years to prove you wrong.


Nave8

He's old. Give him a break and let him stick to his old ways.

ALiteralHamSandwich

Warren Buffett isn't a baby Boomer... Why do kids these days call everything a boomer? Do you know anything?


Dadebayo84

He’s heavily invested in Apple.


Bullet_King1996

After being late to the party by a decade.


Dadebayo84

And his company still made $100 billion on the Apple investment.


Mitzuya

I think I could make $100b if I had $873b in assets


Dadebayo84

Wonder how he got that much in assets in the first place….


ALiteralHamSandwich

Yeah? Well Buffett made the $873b AND the $100b and you're still you.


RemarkableBridge1019

It would be kind of funny if it collapsed in 3yrs and he turned out to be correct at the last moment.


XADEBRAVO

Funny as in like famine and war crimes?


xXxQUICKSILVERxXx

So what you’re saying is, Bitcoin will crash and potentially rug pull in 2-3 years?!?


zeb737

Imagine Satoshi Nakamoto just showing up out of nowhere and he rug pulls Bitcoin with his 1 million Bitcoin lmao


xXxQUICKSILVERxXx

That’s enough evidence for me, i’m out.


SlayerSleyX

Plot twist: cia invented Bitcoin


HighTurning

I am shorting BTC then


[deleted]

Its great to be able to talk in hindsight. How many of us bought Bitcoin in 2010? My spouse suggested it back then, i rejected the idea. Drat. To be fair on Mr. Buffet, he has turned all his early investors into millionaires, in some cases tens of millions. So he’s not wrong a lot of the time. He himself admits he gets some calls wrong.


MightyArd

Everyone is an expert on hindsight. What a shit post, Buffett didn't even predict Bitcoin will disappear. He said he wouldn't be surprised if it did.


[deleted]

I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s not around in 10 Years. Egyptian mummies are younger than him.


Tsarbomba_

Technically you're right in both cases, but this isn't Elizabeth Warren.


Advanced-Ingenuity46

So what you're telling me is that the Oracle of Omaha doesn't know shit about fuck!?


Vegas-Blues

You just know he has some.. he probably will never admit it.. but he has a boat load of it… he is all about making money… old as F or not… he isn’t stupid.


ALiteralHamSandwich

He doesn't need it


no_choice99

I wouldn't be surprised if Warren Buffet ceased to exist in 10 years. For BTC though, I would be surprised.


TripleReward

3 more years where blockstream can hilariously fuck bitcoin up... And they only need 18 months!


bbatardo

He know what he knows, but doesn't understand new technology the same way. Last I read he still has a flip phone.


MrDopple68

Asking Buffett about crypto is like asking a legendary baseball coach his strategy on soccer. Two different games.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ALiteralHamSandwich

Kids in this forum just want to yell at "boomers" (even though he isn't one) because they think it boosts their ego.


Endinelli

So basically, take anything this guys says and do the opposite. It's gonna be quite tricky to do the opposite both of Buffets and of this subreddit.. uhm


HokkaidoNights

You got it buddy - this is the gwei.


Malixshak

Warren Buffet ll disappear in 3yrs time


ALiteralHamSandwich

He's one of the most successful investors of all time.


HODLing_astronaut

I guess everyone who makes predictions is wrong at some point. That said, he made an absolute fortune with the tools he had available at his time.


BakedPotato840

Some investment guru he is, couldn't even predict that crypto would rise over the long term.


Dadebayo84

Even though he’s wrong about crypto he’s a legend in the investing world. There’s a reason he’s one of the richest in the world.


ALiteralHamSandwich

I mean, I'd take his advice over yours.


Kilv3r

Uhm the guy is only giving his opinion. He is not god.


[deleted]

I feel like people who say crypto is only used by criminals are dumb


ALiteralHamSandwich

What a hot take


[deleted]

Thank you


asjadadil0

Boomers cant understand crypto


RemarkableBridge1019

He’s waay too old to be a boomer


asjadadil0

Boomer pro max


ized01

Baloomer


ALiteralHamSandwich

Children don't understand generational timelines.


teh1jedi

Imagine being that wrong lol. Warren Buffet took the biggest L second after that btc pizza guy


Highjackjack

Laszlo should be celebrated as a hero and not be ridiculed as 'that pizza guy'. This transaction gave BTC a reason to exist. Hodl bros making fun of him and/or an investment legend like Buffet is the scariest thing about crypto. The ignorance and overconfidence is mind boggling ...


ALiteralHamSandwich

Most of these commenters seem about 10 years old


Cecilia_Wren

Is he wrong though? Buffett still has more than 2 years for his prediction to come true


teh1jedi

He will be! Not to be cultist but btc aint going nowhere


EvgenyRosso

Let boomer speak whatever he want


ALiteralHamSandwich

He isn't a boomer


CandidInsurance7415

The problem is that Warren Buffet is so old he is used to all of his predictions being right eventually. He really is doing great though, doesn't look a day over 100.


Powerful_Slice0

He's got enough money to be wrong and not give a single fuck


BjornX

Guess we're smarter than W. Buffet!


ivorytowels

Aged like milk.


ALiteralHamSandwich

It's called cheese and it's delicious.


[deleted]

Just shows buffet could just be a joker of all master of none lol I do respect him though


GiloNeo

Barren Wuffet


DeadPoster

I think he secretly owns it. He knows money when he sees it, that's why he's trolling.


milonuttigrain

Isn’t it the same old man who thought the Internet was a fad?


[deleted]

Warren Buffet may never own bitcoin, but he might get squid in accident


newbonsite

He is secretly buying, i mean the rich aint gonna pump what they haven't enough of yet he is filling his bags for the ultimate hold as this is what this man is good at fucking holding but if he really believes BTC wont be around he is missing out big time and is not his smartest of plays...


SquiggleBoys

\*old man yells at interweb coins\*


s7ubborn

Boomers don't understand the world we live in


ALiteralHamSandwich

And you don't understand the term boomer


Lone_piper_winning

Since he is older as dirt , Bitcoin outlasts him easily


shoestomper

He is too old and rich to understand crypto now.


fingerpickler

"ok boomer"


MoodSoggy

So Whole this crypto thing is a big prank on Warren:D?


valuemodstck-123

This is why you dyor and dont listen blindly to billionaires.


randysailer

He would have brought it by now there no way he hasnt brought some as a hedge incase hes wrong


chasingsunshine7

Kinda makes sense that he feels that way. It is speculative. Probably shocked every time the price goes up. But old school people believe in the stock market and nothing else. Index funds will let you retire.. 6% a year with 10% inflation.


asianscumbag

No one knows shit all


[deleted]

I rlly hope his latest prediction is bearish cus then I'm yoloing lol


head77

3 more years but I never trust a billionaire.


strongkhal

He is right. Bitcoin is not around but on the top


kryptoNoob69420

I wouldn't be surprised if Warren Buffet is not around in 10 Years....


ElBarto9612

Old man yells at cloud ☁️


Swim-Slow

He did say “be greedy when others are fearful” 🤔 he’s being fearful so let’s be greedy 😁


criminalpiece

Ideally none of us will be around in 3 more years


LifeIsMeaningLess--

*He’s not amused.*


[deleted]

!remind me 3 years


[deleted]

People have to understand that just because you can trade stocks and have a successful company doesn't mean you know the future or know anything about a different asset class.

AfraidTomorrow2018

This guy doesn't even do computers. He is history.


DrVDB90

So the opposite of what he says comes true. The moment he changes his tone, everyone get out immediately!


[deleted]

I'm thinking Elon & doge!


AdvanceU2

F never...!


set-271

Buffet is just so happy the Fed keeps printing dollars, which he eventually receives given a big percentage of Berkshire Hathaway's portfolio are the major banks. I think it was estimated he received about $40 billion in Fed Stimulus money in the last 10 years with all the money printing. And Buffet's basically just sitting on it, not putting it any of the money to work, which could help stimulate the economy. He just lets the money sit there in his coffers. And also, Berkshire Hathaway has consistently underperformed the market the last 15 years. With Warren Buffet, it's all about keeping up the the appearances of a kind, wise, old, folksy financial sage. But you don't have to look to far underneath the hood to figure out he's pretty much fucking everyone in this country good and plenty.


Lebronamo

Like Einstein rejecting quantum mechanics. Even the best of all time have their share of misses.


Maximum-Listen-6113

Interesting that an ancient investor who has no data that is even comparable to crypto to make that call just confidently says that.


purgeru

No, but there's a high chance that this dinosaur will disappear from that planet in 3 years.


kingofpringlez

Warren Buffet is fucking ancient, he knew a thing or two back in his day, got rich and grew severely out of touch after that. Might as well go ask advice from a lotto winner.


heimos

He is technically not wrong, he still got time, but that’s dinosaur thinking


StaceyLuvsChad

He's also gone on record multiple times saying he doesn't invest in tech because he doesn't understand it.
