'The Big Short' Legend Michael Burry Reveals How He Reacted On First Seeing 'Hero' Charlie Munger

Value investor and former hedge fund manager Michael Burry revealed what he did when he had a close encounter with the vice-chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc (NYSE: BRK-A) (NYSE: BRK-B), Charlie Munger, over two decades ago. 

What Happened: Burry said in a tweet on Tuesday that 21 years ago, he walked past Munger, a close associate of Berkshire Chair Warren Buffett, while he was sitting alone on a bench.

“Never have I sought to meet my heroes. My advice is to do the same,” said Burry.

Why It Matters: Burry, of the “Big Short” fame, and Munger are both seen as value investors and share their disdain for Bitcoin BTC/USD. Munger recently advised investors not to put all their retirement money in Bitcoin.

Burry doesn’t seem to like the dollar either, as he said in a separate tweet on Tuesday that the greenback is “not at all strong, and is not getting stronger.”
