Warren Buffett got role in the office

Warren Buffett got role in the office

Season finale of The Office, yesterday there were Warren Buffett got the role. It is a cameo for investers, but Buffett had a juicier role last month when he starred in a five-minute spoof of The Office, which was viewed by some 40,000 attendees of Berkshire Hathaway's (BRKA) annual meeting. And when Dwight Schrute, realizing that Buffett, 80, is the real deal, says, "I look forward to serving as your No. 2," Warren has no use for him. In walks Charlie Munger, Berkshire's 87-year-old vice chairman. Says Schrute to Munger: "You don't look so tough." Munger leers at Schrute:"There are 18 ways I could kill you right now."

The video of annual meeting was superb. When Andy Bernard boasts that he graduated from Cornell -- "an Ivy League school" -- while Buffett went to the University of Nebraska, Buffett replies, "I got turned down by Harvard. Best thing that ever happened to me." Warren Buffett is very popular and famous investers. My favorite proposition to Buffett, from Meredith: "What do you say we take the 'D' off mutual funds and have a little mutual fun?" Buffett replies: "I should have gotten here earlier."
