Warren Buffett Reflects on 60 Years Leading Berkshire, Highlights Record Cash Reserves

Warren Buffett, Chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, announced that this year’s shareholder meeting will be shorter than usual, as he now uses a cane for support due to his age.
Berkshire Hathaway paid $26.8 billion in corporate income tax last year, which is far more than any U.S. Company has paid, including tech giants.
Berkshire Hathaway holds a record cash reserve of $334.2 billion, nearly double from $167.6 billion a year earlier, after selling stocks in Apple and Bank of America.
Buffett urged the U.S. Government to maintain a stable dollar, emphasizing the need for wisdom in government spending.
