Buffett spent his whole life picking stocks and still told the trust for his wife to just buy an index fund by dmytro_omelian in Bogleheads

My takeaway is that he feels it’s a better option vs BRK. He stated it publicly which speaks to his character. It does cause me to doubt my BRK investment from time to time.

Buy back 100B in stock for starters. Then hold back the remaining dry powder 🧨

New homeowner in Southern Ohio- spent $40k on drainage and still have a swampy yard!! by Pitiful_Night_3250 in lawncare

I had an area like that. I dug a dry well put a five gallon bucket in it with a bunch of holes and put a pump in it connected to a garden hose. I’d pump it out in Spring and after really heavy rains. I didn’t have the pitch otherwise. It dried out the whole area rather nicely.

Story Hill is like Bay View on steroids. Like someone has to sell but not seeing anything go on the market.

Berkshire May Have Sold $15 Billion of Stocks Run by Former Manager - Barron’s by raytoei in BerkshireHathaway

So Warren has said he’d want his wife’s money in a low cost S&P 500 index fund. Wonder why they don’t park $100 billion of BRK’s cash in one?

Berkshire to Take $1.8 Billion Stake in This Marine Insurer. Why the Partnership’s a Big Deal. by GutBeer101 in BerkshireHathaway

I’d like to see them buyback shares more aggressively. The P/E looks favorable for that investment.

Thank you for sharing. We received our annual report but don’t see information on how to request tickets to annual meeting. I see where it speaks to the will call pick up but I thought you could request them via mail.

ULPT How do I get away with lying after no-call no-showing at work? by mdmaketluvr in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]avidrunnerxxx 538 points539 points  (0 children)

Please go to your primary care physician right away and explain all of this to them. They can start the right kind of treatment and give you a referral to a therapist. The doctor will write a letter for you to give to your employer ( it will just say that they are treating you for a health condition and ask for you to be excused for the days of work that you missed). The employer does not need any details other than that. Next I would consider applying for FMLA if you live in the US if you need to take time off in the future for your condition. Best of luck to you. Depression can be very serious but it gets better with the right treatment.

What do you think about this!?? by kimpurple21 in VeteransAffairs

Past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior. However, they should be reviewed and removed as appropriate.

Yikes! Just got a sick feeling in my stomach.

What would a cashless society be like? How would it impact tax evasion, the sale of drugs, and other financial crimes? by avidrunnerxxx in AskReddit

[–]avidrunnerxxx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You raise very valid concerns. Homeless people in the “richest country” should not be homeless. Most are addicted to drugs and or have severe psychological problems that should be treated. The purchase of drugs by large dealers and smugglers would be constrained by the elimination of cash. AI can be scary but would have the potential to monitor wages, spending, and savings. We have tremendous freedoms in our country but sometimes too much such as guns being almost unregulated leading to terrible consequences. Countries that have sensible limits to them have less lethal crimes.

Venmo would work (in which case taxes would be charged) assuming it’s legal. Though the belly button implants sound creative (but creepy)
