To clear - I do respect Buffet and Munger. I build a temple for them when compared to contemporary morons (read Paypal mafia).
and to be clear - Buffet and Munger optimized on legal money (Munger made a billion before his death investing in coal).
and to be clear - In capitalism all in game as long as it's within legal boundaries. They never crossed that line.
Taleb's Tweet
My problem is they had so much money they could have shown a way to the younger generation by not investing in processed food (Heinz, Kraft Foods) et al., which has long term health effects.
My problem is they had so much money they had options to bet on stocks sans second order effects but yet they choose not to do so.
My bet is history will not treat them like messiahs they are treated now.
A missed opportunity.
