Buffet is a brilliant investor but when it comes to other things in life I think he’s a dolt. I think he just got caught up in mania for The One.

I heard he has lost 4.5 billion on his 40% stake in Berkshire Hathaway.
And that he personally approved a whole slew of derivative contracts.
How brilliant is that (lately)?
