Podcast: Warren Buffett's 2008 Annual LetterPrint

Posted on March 10, 2009

In this podcast, we discuss Warren Buffett's recently published annual letter to the shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway. We posted a series of blogs last week on Buffett's recap of Berkshire's operations in 2008, and Tom's Globe and Mail column on the weekend highlighted some of the valuable perspectives and insights that make the letter unique.

In this, our last posting on the topic (we promise), Tom explains what draws him to Buffett and why he commends his calmness, candidness and common sense approach toward investing. He also expands on Buffett's view that the investment world has gone from underpricing risk to overpricing it, among other observations.
