Good morning everyone, with a special thanks to those who participated in this discussion. Bottom line, if Buffett and Munger are going to pound the table for total transparency from others, see the crypto space etc, it's hypocritical to refuse to disclose which trades are Buffetts with every quarterly filing. Posting on these message boards has been a very interesting 20 year journey. It started on the yahoo board, then moved to the Fools board, but not much changed regardless of which Brkville madrassa we are on. Questioning Father Buffett on any issue always resulted in negative responses, 100 percent of the time. No one agreed that the Bs should be split 50 for 1, not one poster. No one agreed that buybacks should be authorized at, material discounts to IV no one. The Fools board had many sharp substantive posters back in 2010, yet, not one poster agreed with my suggestions. Now, it's the issue of transparency and disclosure. Not one member of the Brkville congregation can agree that munger and Buffett are being hypocrites, demanding transparency from others, while allowing the financial press to consistently mis report trading activity at brk. The good news is, Manlobbi is the new, cop on the beat, in this new and improved Brk house of worship, hence, I doubt he will block me, cancel me, take away from posting privileges etc, but, if he wants me to go away , no problem, I will respect his wishes. Btw, if Manlobbi or anyone else would like to see the messages I received from idiots on the yahoo and fools boards, just ask, I'll be happy to share them. Anyway, I have no doubt brk will in fact agree with my request soon enough. For the sake of disclosure , I'm currently about 20 percent long brkb but I'm also short the brk puts and the calls, which is little exposure relative to the past 25 years. Good luck to all, this has been another interesting experiment , thanks to those who joined in.
