The Snowball was a BIG disappointment. I was shocked at how many mistakes and inaccuracies there were. Not in reference to Buffet, but in other areas. For example, Miss Schroeder writes that the 1968 Presidential Race, President Johnson withdrew and then Sen. Kennedy entered. That's wrong. The reverse happened. She wrote that President Nixon's re-election group was called the "Campaign to Re-Elect The President." It was the "Committee" not Campaign. Just lazy writing.
Of course he has many friends... because his money. If he looses all his money, he will loose all his friends, you bet. Now, why the media likes him? To sell magazines, news and books.
I've been reading this book and I'm loving it. I've always liked Warren Buffett and I think as I read the book I respect more and the man Warren and what he stands for. Also, how he is like everyone else with all his shortcomings and yet he excelled in what he loves to do.
@ConservAmer I agree. I noticed the same errors, and others, when I read the book. Too bad.
