Somehow, I doubt Buffet understands the applicable laws better than Apple's lawyers. I guess it's not just the Hacker News Effect, Matt ;) (http://mattmaroon.co

- jerf 17y agoWarren Buffett is not up on the legal disclosures required involved when the health of a CEO of a large public company is imperiled? Boy, he'd better bone up fast then! He's coming up on 80 pretty quickly. He might just have a clue what he's talking about here. People don't fit in pigeonholes; a guy with a math degree may, in fact, know how to fix a running toilet. I know! It's amazing! And a CEO of a very large public holding and insurance company might just have more than a passing familiarity with SEC disclosure laws. I know I'm going out on a limb there, but I think it's a reasonable bet. Me? What I know is that I don't know anywhere near enough to referee this discussion.
- andreyf 17y agoWarren Buffett is not up on the legal disclosures required involved when the health of a CEO of a large public company is imperiled? That's not what I said. What I said is that I'm sure Apple's lawyers went through the legal implications of non-disclosure, and OK'd it, whereas Warren is not a lawyer. I have a math degree and know how to fix a running toilet, but I probably shouldn't give tips to a highly competent team of plumbers on their plumbing decisions.
