"post-90s" Buffett is still full of enthusiasm for his work.

In the latest interview released on Thursday, the 91-year-old Buffett, dressed in a blue suit jacket, gray casual pants and a red tie, said while drinking CokeHe loves his job, which is "the most interesting job in the world".

Buffett says he gets up before 7 a.m. every day to watch the news and then arrives at Berkshire Hathaway headquarters before the stock market opens at 08:30. And said that even if he is not in the office, the company has always been in his mind, he "has been working."

However, Buffett also admitted that age had some impact on him.Mentioning that he would "forget his name and cannot read as fast as before", he even described himself as a "rotting machine", but said he still said "it feels great".

On the question of the company's successor, Buffett said there was already a successor (which should refer to the company's executive Greg Abel), but he added:

He's not warming up. I'm still working overtime.

In addition, when asked about Musk, Buffett expressed "high praise" to him.

Buffett said directly:

This shows American products. I mean, he's competing with General Motors Co, Ford, Toyota, who have everything. He has an idea, and he is winning. It's America. You can't even dream of it. It's shocking.

Well, compared with now, Buffett was very cautious in his evaluation of Musk.In 2018, he also criticized Musk for taking on big companies.

Buffett mentioned in an interview in 2018:

People like his car and everything. He is trying to improve the product. I salute him for that, and the American public will decide whether it succeeds. It's not easy.

And in an interview in April 2020,Buffett said he would not invest in Tesla, Inc., although Musk thought he had done some "great things".

In addition, Buffett also praised Apple Inc CEO Cook as a "great manager" and pointed out that although Apple Inc accounts for only about 25% of the world's smartphones, but "Apple Inc produces the most useful products for people-the most ambitious products."
