I believe this is true in large part. But, it's also self serving on Lewis' part. Quoting a publicist, with no name, that he somehow shares with Buffett. Buffett saying allegedly that Lewis bought at the lowest p/b ever (an obvious, look at me I'm so smart). Why did he sell? For charity, also making himself look good (Lewis). I'm not saying it isn't true, but Lewis is always shady to me.
Good points. I also find it weird that he "sold" A shares to fund charities. That doesn't make any sense to me; it makes much more sense to convert A to Bs and gift the Bs to charities directly.
And Lewis claims he bought "a bunch" of As in 2008 subtlety telling listeners "look at me, how rich I am".
