So I was watching 'Warren Buffet; The World's Greatest Money Maker' yesterday.

I don't get how one of the world's richest men has been a 'father figure' to the world's most evil c... man for decades (excuse me admin, don't want to spoil your 'safe space')...

And gifted $31 BILLION to his wicked foundation, without being;

a. in on it,
b. the world's greatest fool.

Have I missed something?

Other than making billions of dollars and being a part of their club? ;)

Gates' foundation's main focus is to reduce the population of Africa and India, Buffet agrees with that.

Buffett believes in depopulation. He just doesn’t say it out loud cause his company is public. Google “good club Buffett”

Billionaires are able to hide a great deal of their wealth in charitable foundations - as long as you spend i think 5% of a year - so they don't get taxed - they still control the actual money. So, for example a foundation can be used to lobby politicians or bribe them- push for legislation that helps your bottom line, or just fly you on your private jet to davos for a weekend of evil fun, all on the foundation's dime.

Then why not the 'Buffet Foundation'?

Buffet presents as a nice old man, but before he met Charlie Munger he made money the Benjamin Graham way: buying undervalued companies and then selling all the assets, raking in millions while putting countless people out of work. An entire town revolted against him once for doing this, and from what I understand he stopped doing it afterward. But whether that decision was true repentance or just pragmatism, he has demonstrated a capacity for ice-cold behavior in the past. Hopefully it was true repentance and he isn’t just doing it more covertly now.

Yes, don't be fooled by the "friendly old grandpa" front. I work with a retired senior government official who is 80+ years old and uses the 'forgetful grandpa' act to win court cases. Its a rope-a-dope and once the other side falls into the trap, he switches it off and goes into 'what we have here is a failure to communicate' mode. He is a master politician and negotiator, i would assume Buffett is similar.

I am sure he's got those too. A donation to a like minded buddy, I am sure they all 'donate' to each other's 'foundations' - and essentially pay no taxes.
BTW, that's why Buffet and other billionaires harp on about raising income tax - they don't pay income tax. ...it would be a way of extracting more wealth from the middle class and funneling it via government to their own pockets (vaccines, etc)

Yes, when you dig deeper, Buffett has major skills (shrewdness) but they are not what the public claims they are. He was the son of a US Rep and was able to understand the game from his father. Most of his early achievements were utilizing insights on public-private alliances that were huge moneymakers (note: not markets, lobbied or corrupted markets for insiders). Once you get to the wealth he had, if you have the understanding of guys like Benjamin Graham and can push people and businesses around, it's not all that surprising that he got as far as he did. When you find out the details of his life and what his businesses have done, you start to see that "he knows the game" and I have no problem with that. The issue is that his acolytes are not honest about what he has done and how he has done it. I first was drawn into finding out more of the details when I realized he was a fraud on things like public relations, talking about how his secretary gets paid XYZ and he pays very little in taxes. Next thing you know he's buying into the merger of Tim Horton's/Burger King and moving the headquarters to Canada, and guess why: to save on taxes. :rolleyes:

I'll leave it to others to tell you all more about the globalist/abortion/depopulation causes his "foundations" have supported over the years. He has been a little more wary of the public eye on that than others, who are unabashed or even proud and in your face about it.

I just watched part of that doc again.

So he buys companies sight unseen after a phone call with the owner because site visits "are not part of his analysis".

F.... fop off.

It's because it's not his money anyway.
