I certainly have no opposition to a Fairfax board if people want one. There are many investment alternates to BRK that well might be worth considering.

For myself, I've enjoyed prime beef for 3 1/2 decades now. So I have no particular interest in hamburger or flank steak, or whatever the market might be serving up at better prices. But still of a similar nature. What would be alternates?

I do find myself continuing to look at BAM, but that cools when tax considerations enter the discussion. Perhaps one for my heirs if step-ups are still lawful?

Why I bring this up is that I see BAM as a different dish, but one that has its own attributes. Toll gates have their own attractions if they're located on well traveled roads. Including international.

XOM is another one.

Those are two that come to my mind when I think about the old Henny Youngman joke:

Q: How's your wife?
