The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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.

Let’s not forget that Buffett and Munger didn’t have to answer any questions at all. Not this year or the past 60.

It’s in the nature of open mics and emailed questions that silly things do come up. There’s also the annual report and proxy materials one can peruse at their convenience. This management tends to be more than full and fair disclosure.

Was it the worst? The announcement in the last 5 minutes essentially put every shareholder first! Not even the board! That’s a lesson to be etched in history.

Sure, bring on the event planner and the bromides that come with. Just attend any other shareholder meeting to see these.

I just enjoy the meetings and am ever grateful going to them.
