If you could call up anyone in the world and have a one hour conversation, who would you call?

I would love to have a one hour call with Warren Buffet to gain his insight and wisdom on all things financial, his opinions on the current business environment and any predictions he has for the future. I know he publishes an annual newsletter for Berkshire Hathaway, but talking to him in person would be awesome.

Have you ever watched one of his videos?
It would change your mind about a phone call with him.
 
I am presuming Bretrick, you mean someone outside of one’s family?

I have always been fascinated by, Jesus. So I would love to have a conversation with him. To really know the man and ask one specific question which might require an hour long answer.

According to the Gospels Jesus is recorded as having asked 307 questions himself.

He was asked 183 questions according to the Gospels by others.
He never directly answers except for 3 of them. These are the three questions he answered:

1. When Pilate asked him whether he was King: he replied I am a king. I was born for this (John 18:37).
2. The disciples asked him how to pray and he said:
This is how you pray, and he taught them the Our Father (Luke 11:1).
3. One of the Pharisees asked him: Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law? Jesus said, You must love the Lord your God with all your heart,with all your mind, and with all your soul (Matthew 22:36-37).

I would like to ask him why only these three questions, why did he not answer more of the questions.

Here's his first interview. It makes me wonder if investment at the time he's being asked was possible in more stable companies.

Volatile businesses are a lot riskier. He's asked about IBM which at one time was considered a good investment. People thought they'd be around and doing well forever.

Anyway, this is the only interview with him I've enjoyed.

 
Wait a second. You said in your original post if you COULD call anyone you want and talk for an hour.

My question is what is there to stop us from doing that?

That said, I think I'd call a friend in England.

Yep, for those of us in the US he is the most powerful person alive.

Kinda thought having a talk with him might be good for us both, but then I thought about it and maybe not. I have some great ideas for him, but they might be wasted... And not sure I'd hear much from him other than sound bites. Though he might be happy to talk with someone who wasn't going to ask about Hunter.

I'd totally ask about Hunter. With those who should be not doing so, someone needs to. I'd also ask about the documents in his garage and how come he's special and doesn't get the same treatment Trump's getting.

George Carlin was right. It's all one big party and you and I are not invited.
