Buffer overflows don't even show up in OWASP's list of top 10 vulnerabilities, most of which are language agnostic.
Aside from that, a tally of the cost of buffer overflows is dwarfed by a tally of the cost of CPU cycles, RAM, and other system resources wasted by the inefficiency of safe languages and their ecosystems.
