Warren Buffett -
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️
When Joseph Piccolo arrived in Omaha in 1909 from his native Sicily,he bought an old blacksmith shop at 2202 S. 20th Street. In 1922,he turned that property into a grocery store, then a beer garden and finally in 1934, with son Anthony in charge,Piccolo Pete's Restaurant. The name was shortened to Piccolo's.
A family photograph of Anthony Piccolo inspired the landmark sign of a piccolo player that still hangs over the front door.
Piccolo's was one of two longtime family-owned steakhouses - Gorat's remains the other - that billionaire investor Warren Buffet recommended to Berkshire Hathaway convention goers. Buffet was a longtime customer and really enjoyed their famous root beer floats.
Piccolo's closed New Year's Eve 2015 after 81 years as one of Omaha's finest Italian steakhouses. Omaha,Nebraska. 6.15.2017
That's rule #1. Rule #2: never forget rule #1.

This is a nightmare for accountants and overly organized people.
Looks like random number generation to me.
Sure is a lot of tomatoes.
It's only when the tide goes out that you discover who's been swimming naked.

Warren Buffet dice que donará 29.000 millones a obras benéficas
El financiero Warren Buffet, poseedor de una fortuna cercana a los 44.000 millones de dólares, ha asegurado a la revista Fortune que va a donar la mayor parte de ella a la caridad. El segundo hombre más rico de Estados Unidos tras Bill Gates se dispone a dar 37.000 millones de dólares (unos 29.000 millones de euros) a diversas fundaciones y organizaciones de caridad, entre ellas la del propio Gates. La de Buffet sería la mayor donación individual que se ha hecho nunca en EE UU.
El inversor, de 75 años, ha declarado a Fortune que la muerte de su mujer, Susie, hace dos años, le hizo darse cuenta de que debería donar su fortuna antes de morir. "Nuestros hijos son estupendos. No está bien, ni es racional, inundarles con dinero", ha afirmado.
En una carta a los Gates, Buffet ha explicado que el matrimonio se ha comprometido "a pocos objetivos pero extraordinariamente importantes, una política que creo que ofrece las mayores posibilidades de éxito". Por su parte, los Gates han publicado una carta en la página web de su fundación, donde se muestran "impresionados" con la decisión de Buffet "de usar su fortuna para resolver las mayores desigualdades del mundo", y particularmente abrumados de que su amigo haya elegido "dirigir una gran proporción a la Fundación Bill y Melinda Gates", la mayor organización filantrópica del mundo.
Buffet, conocido como el Oráculo de Omaha por sus exitosas inversiones financieras, comenzará este mismo mes a transferir dinero a la Fundación Gates. La cantidad donada a esta organzación podría superar los 1.500 millones de dólares el primer año, según asegura la agencia Reuters.

Pues qué decir... que estaba yo estudiando y de golpe y porrazo me encuentro con esta noticia en TecnoChica y ya me ha animado la mañana.
Vale, es evidente que para este tío, donar el 85% de lo que tiene (o dicen que tiene) significa quedarse con el 15% de un botín impresionante... así que pobre no se quedará.
Pero es mucho dinero y me alegra ver que en el mundo no sólo hay magnates como el tío Gilito o Kane (o Hearst, que se supone que es en quien se inspiró el personaje).
Podía haberse decidido antes, sí... o podía no haberlo decidido nunca.
Así que hoy seré un poco más optimista de cara al futuro de este inmundo mundo.

It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently.

Students made a trip to Omaha to spend the day with Warren Buffet, Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, on October 22, 2010. The entire visit lasted over eight hours -- the impact on 20 Daniels students, as well as a faculty and staff members--priceless.

If the Chinese business man Wang Chuanfu's goal is to lull us to sleep - he has succeeded. The styling is mundane and lackluster. But beware - under the hood of this dragon is Wang's deep desire to be China's top automaker by 2015. He plans on being #1 in the world by 2025. Unreasonable? Think again. Build Your Dream (BYD) sold 450,000 vehicles in 2009 alone. China is pushing hard to "Go inland." That is - to sell in China first - then conquer the foreign lands. Vehicle sales are skyrocketing - The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers reported auto sales in second (41%) and third-tier (51%) cities surged for the first 9 months of 2009. Once fortified in China - watch out for the U.S. takeover. Design can be acquired as seen by Hyundai - when they hired Joel Piaskowski. He was wooed away to Mercedes early last year. BYD is the largest supplier of cell phone batteries in the world. Combine the worldly know-how with visionaries like Warren Buffet, who recently made a 10% investment in the nascent company. With up to 205 miles between charges, and torque that rivals a Ford F-150 pickup truck, the e6 may have just enough performance for American's to overlook the dull appearance.
