Thanks to Will for passing this along.
Howard Buffett, the son of Warren Buffett, says his dad isn’t surrendering his post atop Berkshire Hathaway “until he’s buried in the ground.”
That morbid assessment is included in a profile of the younger Buffett airing on CBS’s “60 Minutes” this Sunday. And though Howard Buffett’s sounds pretty definitive, it does run contrary to Buffett the Elders’ own assertion that he wouldn’t even surrender the reigns to the company when he went to the Big Boardroom in the Sky. He has joked that he fully intends to continue running the Omaha conglomerate “by séance.”
