If someone else said that, he'd probably get panned. If you are a BH shareholder, odds are that the added five hours of driving cost you much more (time, effort, risk) than the difference in ticket prices, especially if you are flying in for a weekend.
- kalvin 16y agoThat's definitely not the case. This isn't your usual shareholder meeting. 40,000 shareholders (I'd call many of them "fans", really) showed up last year and many of them have more enthusiasm than wealth. You can get tickets just by holding a mutual fund that owns Berkshire and calling up the fund. (My mom and I among them. "At Berkshire, our time horizon is forever." And he pretty much means it.)
