  2. Book came today by Andy Kilpatrick there is a chapter on Parsad(owner of this web site) on page 745.
  3. Buffett says he’s always on the hunt for large acquisitions which he calls elephants. In 2016, the famed Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha—which has long enjoyed the backing of Buffett's billionaire friend Walter Scott, Jr.—gave names to six elephants imported from Africa, calling one of them “Warren” in Buffett’s honor. Here’s the zoo’s official description of Warren: “He is between 7-8 years old and weighs 3,000 pounds. He is a tough guy with a big attitude. He acts like an adult bull, even at an early age. Warren is clever and was the first to explore the overhead hay net. He is able to manipulate the treat cube {probably spiked with Cherry Coke} with his trunk and front foot to spin it in the air and get the best yield.” Maybe this Warren is the next Warren Buffett. Think how long he’ll live.

  10. This heavily revised book opens with a chapter about the gala in New York for the premiere of the HBO movie about Warren Buffett. Buffett himself was at the event for all the fanfare of parties, press conferences and the showing of the movie. "Buffett the Movie" is the first of 329 bite-size chapters about the investing legend from Omaha. The work offers a history of Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway, which he guided from a struggling textile milll to the $400 billion behemoth of today. In addition to a chapter about almost every Berkshire business, there are portraits of a number of shareholders who were along for the ride, be they from Baton Rouge, Delaware, or Murmansk. Buffett has called the book "all-encompassing coverage of Berkshire." With 1316 pages and 2200 photos, mostly in color, the book is an encyclopedic survey of Buffett's masterpiece of the business world. Many of the chapters are reworked to be up to date and others are new altogether. "The 2017 Worldwide Edition" channels last year's Berkshire annual meeting, which was attended by 40,000 people. For the first time, Yahoo Finance streamlined the meeting to an audience around the world. Naturally, there's a 4-page chapter with 14 photos about that meeting, which Buffett calls "our capitalist version of Woodstock."= it is on amzn.com of permanent Value/2017
