I have spent a lot of time in GCC countries (Saudi, Qatar, UAE, Oman). It’s worse there in the sense that more people are dirt poor, but SF is worse in terms of more people being rich. What I mean is, in UAE/Saudi, the poor people are

I think the point is that Paul Allen could have endowed his favorite causes when he was alive with an endowment large enough that the interest earned would fund continued operation indefinitely.

For better or worse, this is the stuff you need personal connections with industry insiders to get the scoop on. The chemical industry doesn't have anything like [0] to get internal scoops so these stories are not published anywhere. I

I share your same viewpoint. My take is that Berkshire's historical value proposition which you described is falling apart and its traditional investments are giving way as it gradually transitions to kind of just being another hedge f
