Liz Claman Has Also Noticed Something Strange About Cavuto's Hair

Imus likes it when the Fox Business Network’s Liz Claman comes in studio for her appearances, because she’s a very attractive woman. However, not much is lost when she phones in, since, as Imus told her, “You’re using your porno voice.”

To go from there to discussion of billionaire investor Warren Buffett, whom Claman frequently interviews, was quite a leap, but Imus was curious what was going on with “the Buff Man” recently.

“He’s convincing quite a few billionaires to cough up half of their money to charity,” Claman said. Buffett, the chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, is also a notorious money-mover, taking the money he makes from businesses he’s bought and using to buy something he likes more. “We all get excited when he does that,” she added.

Feeling that excitement all the way in New Mexico, Imus complimented Claman on an interview she did not long ago with Buffett, Berkshire’s Vice-Chairman Charlie Munger, and Microsoft’s Bill Gates.

Liz's BFF“They’re all so brilliant, and they have a lucidity about them in the way they view the world,” she said. “They’re all self-made, nobody inherited anything, and it’s just fascinating to see people who have created businesses and have a completely different view of the world.”

And they only agree to interviews with Fox Businesses, more specifically with Claman, and when Imus wondered why, she quickly confessed, “I offer it up.”

Buffett will turn 80 in just a few days and Munger is 87 years old, but Claman assured Imus they’re as sharp as ever. In fact, Munger, the more technologically savvy of the two, recently advised Buffett to invest in a Chinese electric car company that Claman said is “kicking everybody else’s tails.”

She also reported that Munger recently sent $25,000 to the author of “a really smart” op-ed piece he read somewhere, leading Imus to conclude that perhaps the wheels are beginning to come off for old Charlie.

As for China’s success with the electric car and other technological advances, Claman lamented that the United States was not at the forefront in this and many other cases.

“What can we expect, when China and India are graduating 90 percent of the world’s engineers, and we’re doing barely a couple percent?” she said. “We’re not inspiring our engineers or showing them enough love.”

Also not feeling the love lately: Neil Cavuto, whose suspicious new hairdo has rankled the I-Man, who has noticed an overabundance of mousse, or gel, or something greasy.

Claman’s advice? “Don’t light a match near it.”
