Im not trolling here either.

Genuinely wondering who your heroes are?

Could be a case of mismatched focuses. If someone is focused on tech, they might idealize Musk or Jobs. If someone has roots in the financial realm, they might thing Buffet is their hero.

That’s why I’m asking. Is it possible you can’t understand why Munger is a hero to some because you don’t live in that world?

For the record my heroes are Steve Irwin and my Aunt Patty, so it’s also completely subjective and highly contextual.

Absolutely so. That’s why i am wondering if those people who consider him as a hero can explain reasons. Loving making money is a legitimate reason - no problem with that, everyone has own goals in life.

My heroes, if you will, happen to be regular people, whose names won’t tell you anything, so I hope you kindly excuse me on that.

Again, there’s arguably nothing wrong with idealising, however by definition it rarely has anything to do with real life qualities. Again, nothing wrong with it.
