Munger said that Bitcoin was Rat Poison and Flakey. Munger was asked about Bitcoin: "Do you understand what they are trying to do with it?" To which he replied "No." Um. Ok. ::) Sorry to be disrespectful to the "older crowd" but maybe it is his age? I am not that young myself but I guess I am younger than I thought! ;D Title: Re: 2013-05-06 Fox Business: Buffet/Gates/Munger on Bitcoin = Rat Poison, Flakey Post by: beckspace on May 07, 2013, 11:56:45 PM Bitcoin kills rats, indeed.

I think that it is a very endearing quality to have. Rat poison when you have a plague of rats can become quite valuable.

Bill Gates, on Bitcoin: "I think it's a technical tour de force." Warren Buffett, on Bitcoin: "I think either Charlie or Bill is right."

I suppose that time is very valuable for these three so meh.

I am not that young myself but I guess I am younger than I thought! ;D I ride the bus with an old fireman who repeated swears when we discuss bitcoin as he is disgusted the world all doesn't use cash. At this point he's helping me more than hurting because everyone listening is seeing the errors of his ways. I appreciate his opposition so that I can practice my arguements for bitcoin. It's just unfortunate he hasn't come around yet. I hope it doesn't delay his retirement plans too much past mine...

Y'all missed the reference. :P Title: Re: 2013-05-06 Fox Business: Buffet/Gates/Munger on Bitcoin = Rat Poison, Flakey Post by: kiba on May 08, 2013, 04:14:38 PM Sorry to be disrespectful to the "older crowd" but maybe it is his age? I am not that young myself but I guess I am younger than I thought! ;D Bill Gate is an old man and he still respect it. That's because he's a technologist.
