Becoming Warren Buffett Movie (2017) Far Beyond $74 Billions

Why not take 90 minutes or so to be pleasantly reminded that not all billionaires heartless?
The subject himself is witty and self-deprecating as he guides us through all stages of his life.

In any other context, Peter Kunhardt’s HBO documentary Becoming Warren Buffett, would seem like too much of a tongue bath — a warm portrait that verges on fawning and honors the success, personality quirks and eventual magnanimity of the famous “Oracle of Omaha” who amassed enough billions through seven decades of shrewd investing to buy all of us many times over.

Those who love money and retain a sure faith in the concept of the self-amassed fortune will have all their hopes in capitalism affirmed here.

At the same time, those who believe that the hearts of old men can soften just as much they are reputed to harden will be encouraged by the backstory of how Buffett decided, in 2006, to part with all but a tiny sliver of his net worth, now estimated to be about $US75 billion.
