下午好,Warren、Charlie、John。
Good afternoon, Warren, Charlie, John.
我是来自 Iowa 州 West Des Moines 的 Norwood。
Norwood from West Des Moines, Iowa.
你们两位的膀胱可真能憋。
You guys have iron bladders.

这个秘诀我们可不会告诉你。
We won't tell you the secret of that.

我刚才还在琢磨,桌子底下是不是有什么装置。
I was wondering about a contraption under the table there.
M2
M20:18
没有,没有。
Nope, nope.
你可以下来检查一下。
You can come down and inspect.

好吧。
All right.
嘿,我想分别问你们一个问题。
Hey, I had a question for each.
Warren,我记得大概在二零一一年,我很幸运地问过您一个关于身后声名的问题。
Warren, I was fortunate to ask you a question, I think in 2011, about legacy.
就是一百年后,您希望人们因为什么记住您。我也挺好奇,想听听 Charlie 希望人们因为什么记住他。
What you wanted to be known for 100 years from now, and I'm kind of curious to hear what Charlie would like to be known for.
Warren,我今年五十二岁,所以我猜你是在我出生那年开始办这个的。我也挺想听听您对第一次年度股东大会有什么回忆。
Warren, I'm 52, so I guess you started this, doing this when I was born, and I'm kind of interested in a memory from your first annual meeting.

我对这件事最早的记忆是,有人问 Warren 希望大家在他的葬礼上怎么评价他,他说:“我希望他们都说,‘这是我见过看起来最老的一具遗体。’”
My first memory when Warren got on this subject, when they asked him what he wanted said at his funeral, he said, "I want them to all be saying, 'That's the oldest-looking corpse I ever saw.'"

而那可能是我说过最聪明的一句话。
And that may be the smartest thing I ever said.
嗯,对我来说,这很简单。
Well, with me, it's very simple.
我是说,我真的很喜欢教书。
I mean, I really like teaching.
所以基本上,我这一辈子都在做这件事,正式地做,也可以说以某种非正式的方式做。
So basically, I've been doing it formally, and you can say somewhat informally, all my life.
而且,我无疑拥有你们能想象到的最好的老师。
And I certainly had the greatest teachers you can imagine.
所以,要是有人觉得我教得还不错,我就会对此感到非常欣慰。
So if somebody thought that I did a decent job of teaching, I'd feel very good about that.
M3
M31:40
对,这让教书这件事变得能忍受一点。
Yeah, it makes the teaching endurable.
里面得带点贫嘴劲儿,而我们俩都能提供这个。
It has to have a bit of wiseassery in it, and we've both been able to supply that.

还有,如果你们是老一代的篮球迷,我可以提一句,据说 Wilt Chamberlain 的墓碑上原本要写:“终于,我能一个人睡了。”
And for those of you who are old-time basketball fans, I might mention that on Wilt Chamberlain's tomb, it was reputed that it was going to say, "At last I sleep alone."
好,九号提问台。
Okay, station nine.
