Charles Munger, Warren Buffett's loyal partner for almost 60 years and a key figure in the transformation of Berkshire Hathaway, has died aged 99. Bloomberg pays tribute to his legacy, highlighting his legendary candor and honesty in his commentaries on economics, politics and investing. Munger was known for his no-nonsense approach and scathing criticism of risky behavior on Wall Street, including banks and the crypto-currency industries. Munger, also a lawyer by training, helped build Berkshire's business model, which became a reflection of the American economy. His passing raises questions about succession planning at Berkshire Hathaway, where he served as Buffett's trusted counterbalance and partner.
