BRK-A

I've been giving Berk some thought. Do you think he's probably insured some of these folks with this toxic finance bonds etc.

I was thinking about this last night, those things were pushed so far and so deep that many insurance companies and others probably thought they were insuring far safer platforms than what they really were. Is it possible that this may turn out to be a wolf in sheeps clothing to BERK? Is there the possibility that he's insured some folks who unbeknown to them have gotten their hands wet with toxic muck? Do you think we'll see the gutting that may finally break the winning streak of the super "Buffet"? The man has always been ultra conservative in his investments and he uses good common sense, but do you think the foxes may have finally outwitted him????
