So f'ing pumped. Flying out today to meet the man himself. I had an opportunity about 5 years ago to meet with him as part of a school group from Syracuse, but I passed on it because I just started working. Finally got another shot and I was all over it.
1st time (and probably last time) in Nebraska also.
Later dudes!
Anthony, congrats man! I hope you have a laundry list of questions to ask
Give us a debrief on how it went upon your journey back
Lucky bastard... have a nice trip...
Was suppose to meet him for a school thing too, but didn't work out.
Don't let him persuade you to give half your wealth to charity.
ask him why he doesnt switch it up on the milk shakes... little coco little vanilla... mix it up son
Don't accept his upfront offer of giving you $100,000 lump-sum for 10% of your future earnings
^^ True that.
Had a similar meeting myself about a month ago:
You the guy in the blue shirt?? LOL.
Regards
Smart ass.
Goatee and a Hawaiian shirt? Obviously been in France too long.
Nice shirt. Is that Tommy Bahama?
At first glance I thought that was Henry Kravis
One of my analysts met him at a wedding when he was in college. Apparently Buffet was a friend of the bride's father. This guy vaugley knew who Warren Buffet was at the time but had no idea what he looked like. They had one brief exchange that consisted of "Where's the bathroom?" Apparently Warren didn't know.
Is is bad that I rather meet Jimmy than Warren?
And Edmundo, from your Meat on the Street post, it sounds like you've met a few buffets, too.
That is great. I wish you would have told me and I could have tagged along as your camera man or something, lol.
You going to let him know about this great little blog you heard about that informs people about MS Finance programs? Tell him you will sell it for just a handful of class A shares.
What's the meeting for/about?
Regards
Jimmy was even cooler than you'd expect him to be. Totally down-to-earth gracious guy. And worth about $400 million, which is nothing to sneeze at.
Edmundo, is that your house in the background? Where was this meeting at?
Regards
@mr1234 Reyn Spooner, actually.
@cphbravo Not my house, but at a house formerly owned by the Rothschild family, believe it or not.
Is that like the hi-class French version of Tommy Bahama?
Kidding.
Edmundo, who is that guy you are with? I don't recognise him.
THAT'S JIMMY BUFFETT, DUDE!!!
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU KIDS THESE DAYS???
Ah right. Was he part of that surpise act who played with Phoenix at Madison Square last week?
Actually, I didn't who that guy was either.
Jimmy Buffett is a singer, right?
Warren Buffett's brother probably ... leeching off of his bro's fame.
Now you're just pissing me off...
Haha.
Regards
Run for cover....never ever piss off a buffet fan
How did the Warren Buffet meet go?

Absolutely amazing. He was incredibly humble and friendly. Extremely funny also.

sorry Eddie, had to post it
HA! Classic.
NICE!!!
sigh I might not be able to meet him in my lifetime I guess I'll have to call in sick next time Berkshire has their annual meeting
@edmundo I recognise Jimmy Buffett, but who's the one on the left ;)
photoshopped : )
