Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger, who died Tuesday at age 99, once offered what turned out to be sage advice to his buddy and investment legend Warren Buffett: live life backwards.
Munger years ago told the somewhat younger Buffett, 93, how he should live his life, according to CNBC's Becky Quick, speaking on CNBC's "Closing Bell: Overtime."
Munger told Buffett, "he should write his obituary the way he wants it written, and then live his life accordingly," Quick said.
"Look at things, and live backwards."
