Warren Buffett, the Oracle of Omaha, missed his chance to save Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. because he didn't know how to use his voicemail, according to a report by
Bloomberg.
Per the report:
Buffett said he was approached a year ago about insuring Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.'s assets before the investment bank filed for bankruptcy, and didn't receive financial documents he requested. He didn't receive the information that he requested be sent to him by facsimile and later learned that there was a voice mail that he missed because he didn't know how to retrieve it, Buffett said.It's doubtful he's hip to Twitter or Facebook either, so take note to meet Buffett face to face if you really are looking for investment.
