The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" 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.

lefigaro.fr - Bernard arnault l aventure recommence tous les jours

Sorry if this is OT, but the following snippet made me think.....
"J'ai reçu l'autre jour un message de l'un des plus grands entrepreneurs américains avec lequel je suis ami, qui m'a félicité pour le succès du groupe et m'a dit: «Tu n'aurais pas dû mettre la limite d'âge de PDG de LVMH à 80 ans, j'en ai 92 et je suis en pleine forme!» J'ai donc de la marge'"

Translation: "The other day I received a message from one of the biggest American entrepreneurs with whom I'm a friend, he congratulated me with the success of my Group and told me: "you should not have fixed the CEO's age limit at 80 years, I am 92 and are still in good shape!" So I have some margin....."

Wonder who this 92 year old American friend is.........
