snoop1130 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Buffett says he will never invest in cryptocurrencies FILE PHOTO: Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett talks to reporters prior to the Berkshire annual meeting in Omaha, Nebraska, U.S. on May 2, 2015. REUTERS/Rick Wilking/File Photo (Reuters) - Berkshire Hathaway's Warren Buffett said on Wednesday he will never invest in cryptocurrencies. "I can say almost with certainty that cryptocurrencies will come to a bad end," Buffett told CNBC in an interview. Buffett's comments come a day after JPMorgan & Chase Chief Executive Jamie Dimon said he regrets calling bitcoin a fraud, referring to comments he made at a banking conference in September. Bitcoin has taken the investing world by storm, surging to a high of more than $19,000 and created a divide on Wall Street about whether it is a legitimate financial instrument. Bitcoin was down around 3 percent at $13,981.53.

Wake Up Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I sleep well with money invested in Buffet because I know storms come and come quickly and violently. When the next storm comes and we all lose money, I want my money invested in a cool head with his experience buyIng bargains while the rest of us worry about the end of the world.

Coconut007 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 He is great in what he does, but nobody is perfect at everything. He didn't invest in Google, Apple, Amazon or Uber as well. Does it mean these were bad investments? Hardly. He is just not keeping up with the technology and people forget that majority of the deals he has made were impossible to reach to retail investors. If you buy for 80 cents what other buy for $1 ... well it's hard to not make money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedtripler Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 The man is almost 85 Soon, he will have to invest in nothing but a wooden box It's unfair to keep asking him about future technology because as he often states he doesn't invest in anything he doesn't understand (even Microsoft, Google, amazon, Facebook,, etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He invests in things that he DOES understand rather than things that he knows little about and probably cares less about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
