Billionaire investor Warren Buffett told shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway on Tuesday that he has prostate cancer but "feels great" and will continue to run the conglomerate during treatments.

Who'll bail him out now?

Well, as much as I don't like Warren Buffett for what he's done, it's still sad that he has cancer. No one deserves that, not even greedy corporate people.

Statistics I have seen indicates this MIGHT be the easiest cancer to beat caught in its intial stage.He has age going against him though. He will probably have a better chance of beating his cancer than Ryan O'Neal. Like them or not hope for the best.

How does the "Buffett rule" have anything to do with him having cancer. If you are going to link to something link to the source article.

Fortunately it's Stage 1 cancer, so it's been detected early and is very curable. When I had testicular cancer, it was Stage 1, and I'm long cured of it. It was a scary time though.

I'm really glad that you are hanging in there Type 97 chi-ha, I hope that you stay healthy and positive.

But it's indeed quite a scary inconvenience for anybody from any walk of life..
