BUFFETT: Well, I think you told me that if they were in purple shoes, men would look at them from miles away, but if they kept wearing those black shoes, which they were only paying a nickel on, they were going to have real trouble.

Was this code to the Elite to get the hell out of Dodge?? What's with "Purple Shoes" ??? Or is Warren Buffett going senile??? GLP researchers need to get busy. Heads up everyone. This is STRANGE! Quoting: Night Owl "BUFFETT: Tell me how you really did it when those women were coming in and you were getting a nickel for black shoes and 25 cents for purple shoes."

The purple shoes will make the men look at you. There's the sizzle -- and yes, it sells and sells and sells. Until people wake up or mature and many don't. “I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you”. Friedrich Nietzsche |

Quoting: Crazy Harriet The purple shoes will make the men look at you. There's the sizzle -- and yes, it sells and sells and sells. Until people wake up or mature and many don't. Except that after a while, people say "Oh, not those purple shoes again!" That's why you buy the black. They go with most everything, and are not a raving eye-catcher, just a nice foundation. Didn't Buffett and other billionaires already pull a lot of stocks out of the consumer goods category in the US? That would be good to look up, OP, if you like, and include here. |

This might have been used as an example in an intelligent marketing discussion, but this was NOT two intellectual, investors having a dialog in marketing ploys. THIS was off the wall! |

The curtain is coming down on this illusion they have created and it is time to pay the piper so to speak and the natives are getting restless. I myself am getting a bit restless over it all. It is also very exhilarating. Last Edited by grefey on 11/05/2012 11:26 AM |

| Keep2theCode User ID: 20545539 11/05/2012 11:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just saw this: [link to www.breitbart.com] Purple apparently means blue and red mixed together, and in the context of this article, that seems to indicate a true choice rather than one party having a lock on things. I do see the surface meaning about the shoes, though, but then again, context is everything. Those who know all the answers haven't heard all the questions. |

| The Answer User ID: 26133827 11/05/2012 12:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Pretty simple actually.. Buffet was saying we need to support Romney in order to assure ad bring in or back for that matter our Overseas investors and obviously the way to do that was to stop selling the "black shoes" (guess who that is!) In other words He said Vote for Romney and get rid of Obama. The interesting part is that he is clearly saying the reason for getting Romney in is to attract MEN from Miles away... |

And he was pretty annoying, I think Buffett has a legitimate criticism of Welch's character. |
