Legendary investor Charlie Munger continued a war of words with popular online broker Robinhood, likening the app to racetrack betting

Legendary investor Charlie Munger continued a war of words Thursday with popular online brokerage Robinhood Markets Inc. over the way it and others have enabled and profited from“I hate this luring of people into engaging in speculative orgies,” Mr. Munger told The Wall Street Journal from his Los Angeles home. Robinhood “may call it investing, but that’s all bullshit.”

Mr. Munger, 97 years old, is the vice chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. and Warren Buffett’s longtime business partner. His comments Thursday echoed criticisms he lobbed at Robinhood the day before.

Robinhood is just a really horrible app in general, similar to Facebook. Both will become obsolete in the future.

So rich crook is upset that the poors dared to try to rise above thier station? What else is new?

The whole wall street is nothing but speculation. This grand-standing needs to be ignored.

maybe we're finally seeing what's going on behind the curtain and he doesn't like it.

Go on robinhood and buy their blood in Kraft Heinz

What’s the difference?

He and Warren Buffett need to let some young bloods run Berkshire. It hasn’t beat the S&P in many years.

I see his point but at 97 imagine how many changes he has seen in the world. His views are a bit dated somewhat. To act like Hedgefunds never told lies to sway public opinion is laughable. They used Media and Robinhood is using the Internet. It's a progression in technology

What’s wrong with racetrack betting?

Lawn seed Godolphin $1000000000.00.....more

Because bribing politicians to pave the way for additional revenue streams is virtuous?

Robinhood showed everyone that they are scumbags when they halted trading on stocks like GameStop and CMC. Don't trust anything that they say Good for robinhood Robinhood is so hopelessly full of shit. Munger was right. At any rate, will love to see how smug RH is when the SEC throws the hammer down on them.
