Warren Buffett on the Lehman Brothers 2008 bankruptcy is the most Buffett story ever:
- He was vacationing in Alberta
- Lehman contacted his assistant for help
- Buffett said “send me a fax and how much”
- The fax never came but they left him a voicemail (he only found it one year later because he didn’t really use his flip phone)
Buffett probably would have said “no” anyways because Lehman asked him for help 6 months earlier in March 2008.
At the time, he printed out Lehman’s previous year 200-page annual report, marked it up with a pen and realized it was a steaming pile of shit and passed.
