  1. That was meant as a joke - sorry if it came across wrong. I believe in being invested in good companies/assets over the long term and spare myself any kind of short-term predictions.
  2. Totally happy with the herman miller embody. Can highly recommend.
  3. 100%! Even if I had infinite money, I would still work a few hours a week. I think it's nice to interact with different people, and it keeps you going. My grandparents had their own company, and they went to the office until they were 97 and 92. — I am probably one of the younger folks here - turned 26 couple of months ago. I am working in FDD and thought it would be a solid foundation for my career. But I don't really find it satisfying. There is so much stupid and unnecessary adhoc/asap work. People are quite nice compared to these M&A shops, but at the end of the day, it somehow feels like everyone in finance lives in some sort of a bubble. What also frustrates me is that if you've read Buffett/Munger, you also know that most of what you do is not really relevant. Always find myself in this spot between "be happy with the job/opportunities you have and keep it going a couple of years" and "if you're not happy, switch immediately," (don't save sex for old age) Goal for me is to become independent as soon as possible. Since I moved to Zurich and taxes are low, thats maybe 7-8 years out.
  4. Nice. Yes thought its maybe not the best but compared to last year not the worst time to buy. Which grades are you typically going for?
  5. Storing them in the PWCC vault and gonna pick them up once I am in the US again
  6. Bought some expensive cardboard - Wayne Gretzky and 86 Fleer Jordan
  7. I just received the notification from my broker. Since I am from Europe, I dont know if this tender makes sense for my taxable account. Are all of you guys doing it in tax advantaged accounts?
  8. Berkshire at the close (down 2% while Apple 3.5% up)
  9. Thinking of just transferring my real estate basket into Berkshire and deleveraging my portfolio for the time-being. @Gregmal are you trimming your APTS, AIV, CLPR calls/shares or holding?
  10. Added to the basket quite substantially last couple of days
  11. Google to Buy New York City Office Building for $2.1 Billion https://www.wsj.com/articles/google-to-buy-new-york-city-office-building-for-2-1-billion-11632225600
  12. Trimmed some Tenneco at $22 today. Anyone still holding?
  13. Tenneco close to Munger's purchase price. Anyone looking at it?
