The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

In 2009 the same intellectuals on the boards told me, BRK doesn't have a buyback in place. Stop your bitching for several years, sell brk, and buy a stock with a buyback in place. My brk has done just fine since 2003 thank you. The experts assured us that Buffett can do much better than buying brk common near BV, we don't need a stinking buyback. The rest is history.

Now is the appropriate time to initiate a quarterly dividend which will increase demand for brkb common.

Several of my kids and grandkids live in Cali top tax bracket. If anyone here would sell brkb and give trump 22% and Newsom 13 % of the gains, please help an old man out and make the case to sell.

Thank you. hc, old, who has fallin and can't get up, in need of help!
