Subject: Re: Next letter to shareholders
Mr Buffett as non-CEO may feel a little more free to say what he wants, in op-eds and suchlike. So you may see fewer annual letter words from him, but perhaps more total words?

I found it somewhere between depressing and scary that in a recent interview he said he was unable to comment on the economy.


As an unrelated point, maybe if he does write such things, we should take then with a wee grain of salt. The old saying about science may apply: if an elderly and respected scientist says that something in his field is impossible, count on it happening within 20 years.
