Munger Shares Investing Tips, Skepticism on Crypto and AI in Zoom Chat with CEO Yuan

Charlie Munger criticized cryptocurrencies as a "scam" and said AI hype seems overblown during his Zoomtopia keynote chat with Zoom CEO Eric Yuan.

The 99-year-old investing legend shared tips on achieving success like hard work, discipline, saving money, and making basic smart investments.

He praised video chat service Zoom for keeping him connected to family and friends at his advanced age when traveling is difficult.

Munger displayed his trademark wit and humor during the fireside chat, joking about his age and illustrating points with talk of poker skills and the danger of too many donuts.

His skepticism on crypto and AI differed from Yuan's views, but the Zoom CEO chose to acknowledge rather than dispute the wisdom of the elder statesman.
