Charlie Munger's Last Dinner: Never Talked to Buffett for Years—and the Trust Web Advice

David Senra recounts a dinner at Charlie Munger's house about six months before Munger's death. Asked how often he talked to Buffett, Munger said "never"—after decades of daily hours-long calls, Buffett could mentally simulate asking Munger a question and already know the answer.
Munger's core advice: your job is to build "a seamless web of deserved trust." Beyond the famous fact that he met Buffett at 28 (Buffett was 35), he emphasized a lesser-known group of friends and partners they did deals with for the rest of their lives—that, he said, is what made life valuable.
