Comment from : @GBPaddling

two cunning old souls descibing what they did their whole life- lying
Comment from : @raghavendra1988

What Warren didn’t say but implied was private equity trusts ARE pyramid schemes! Remember, they don’t disclose their financials they don’t have to They’re privately owned equity Trusts they don’t even pay income taxes on the same percentage as people who work! they pay less Labor is so devalued Production has no value in today’s world How insane is that?
Comment from : @Puzekat2

Buffet has a lot of investment in what is called investment equities what the heck is that?
Comment from : @Puzekat2

These two geriatrics remind me of Statler and Waldorf from the muppets I’m just waiting for them to tell us how much they hate the show being played

Def fraud
Comment from : @idgaf-000

Just like home ownership should have been LEGALLY confined to people needing a home to live in and small scale home improvement/flipper types instead of wall st money gangsters, likewise private equity should be regulated out of existence

PE firms are the perfect representation of the true American culture…GREEDY for money, ruthless, selfish, hubristic, shamelessly inhuman
Comment from : @macallanvintage

The silly American Capitalist system intentionally allows such gangs to be formed…to make huge money for the 1 at the top

Private Equity is nicknamed Vulture Capital for a reason They ruin everything they touch Unlike the Midas touch they turn all gold into dirt
Comment from : @dino2400

Let's be honest, modern libertarian Capitalism just doesn't work It never has and it never will because the incentive to miss-manage and ignore long-term REAL value is too big

Comment from : @wiseguy4944

Worked under a private company taken over by PE firm This happened under two separate companies I worked at and they both followed similar trends I was senior leadership under the privately owned company and was transitioned out, along with my colleagues, due to my traditional views and interpretations of the companies success Under both situations, the PE company focused on inorganic M&E growth and cutting costs in the form of both labor and a streamlined supply chain This primarily resulted in a poorer product being offered, turnover of legacy staff, and a general brain drain Ultimately, the PE firm sold the acquisition company (now structured completely differently) which actually sold LESS product than it did before, but was valued higher because of the accounting tricks (like focus on EBITDA) PE firms are known to utilize Fundamentals only changed for the negative, and the company was a shell of its formal self, but the PE investors and C-Suite walked away with millions more in their pockets They're like Viking pillager and they think of themselves as geniuses

How can you possibly be a believer in the capitalist system, and a great investor, and yet support left-wingism? When all and sundry line up to sing this man's praises, just think about that question! Personally I'm no admirer Far from it
Comment from : @timeresrch

Sharks But these are all the same people with the same history One gets a job at Goldman, the other at Bridgewater or Blackstone or Blackrock Game is the same, get the gold

private equity bought up all the veterinary clinics in my area service is terrible, prices astronomical we have adopted fewer pets as a result, which is sad because we always have a couple shelter cats and dogs down to one cat and one dog now I’d love to rescue more to give them a nice safe home but the vet is too damn expensive

Private Equity will kill the American economy
Comment from : @StudioVoodooMusic

Buffet is selling while the bubble gets bigger in stocks, bitcoin, and other hype
Comment from : @billfletcher5495

It's not a total fraud It is a business It is very successful in extracting many tens of millions of dollars from mature companies with rich cash flows while driving them into bankruptcy It is not a fraud It is a predatory and destructive business model I was front line on dozens of transactions based on hundreds of millions of LP equity and many billions of leverage buying dozens of companies and watching them be butchered

The other problem with private equity is that many of the high quoted returns are based on paper gains, increases in valuations by business appraisers who may be incentivised to provide the higher valuations

There is no equity before honor and respect equity is aligned to an honorable energy field which is found within the honoring of the soil When land is stolen the energy field is dishonorable, so private equity isn't even accurate that is a very distorted situation to experience

When the pandemic struck, Buffet was also selling It was a terrific time to buy equities overall and a great entry point for those in my generation, who were in their 30s and 40s Do you believe this would be a good time to sell some stocks as well? I'm wondering what the best ways are to rebalance my $2 million holdings

Private Equity today means zero accountabilitythey will take risks that they are not responsible for, and can lie to their investors when they mess up They are a risk to the entire society as people are only slowly starting to realize now that Red Lobster and TGIFridays are shutting down

Fund Fees are a scam especially at 1 percent or higher They get their money regardless of how the funds performed No real incentive to be active in the fund’s overall activity and performance

Been there, done that with a PE Nothing matters but $$$ Employees laid off to improve bottom line while performance goes down the toilet 🚽
