Books and free ice cream: what’s not to like?

OMAHA – Like Warren Buffett himself, Berkshire Hathaway shareholders tend to be voracious readers with a weakness for ice cream.  On the night before the company’s annual meeting, they’ll be able to indulge both passions at a reception featuring free Dairy Queen Dilly Bars and more than 20 authors of books related to Berkshire, Buffett and/or investing.

 

The reception will be held from 6 to 8 pm on Friday, April 29 in Mammel Hall, at the corner of Pine and 67th Street on the University of Nebraska at Omaha campus.  This is a new location for the popular event, which has outgrown its traditional home at a local Dairy Queen store. No reservations are necessary but annual meeting credentials will be required for the free ice cream. 

 

Among the authors who will be signing books available for sale at the event:

 

• Glen Arnold: The Financial Times Guide to Value Investing

[Guest]

Do we have to buy our books there or will they sign them if we bring a copy?

 

By the way, which of these books do you guys suggest?

They will sign anything.  This is a great event.  They have it every year.
