Signe and Michelle reflect on the middle section of Warren Buffett's annual Berkshire Hathaway shareholder letter for the year 2023 that was released on February 24, 2024. Buffett sets the tone by writing, "Our goal at Berkshire is simple: We want to own either all or a portion of businesses that enjoy good economics that are fundamental and enduring." While Buffett warns about potential economic storms like those from 2008, he reassures shareholders that Berkshire will remain a financial fortress in that "Berkshire is built to last."

Signe and Michelle reflect on Warren Buffett's beautiful first page tribute to Charlie Munger, the Architect of Berkshire Hathaway, and the beginning section of the 2023 shareholder letter. Warren Buffett writes his letter to shareholders like his sister Bertie and all shareholders out there who would like to understand how Berkshire is performing in its CEO's eyes.

How much should a CEO get paid for being the leader of the business? How Executives and Board of Directors are paid could influence whether you invest in a stock or not. Legendary investor Warren Buffett who has had the same salary of $100,000 for decades has been critical of CEOs who convince their Board Member buddies to rubber stamp huge pay packages while average employee wages stagnate.

Part 3 of our exciting conversation with Charlotte Janis, a granddaughter of legendary investor Benjamin Graham. Charlotte is the Creator/Writer at BeyondBenGraham.com/blog/. Her grandfather Ben Graham is renowned as “the father of value investing” and the mentor of Warren Buffett. Last April (2023), Warren Buffett invited Charlotte to Omaha to go through his files and select documents to donate to an archive of Benjamin Graham papers at Columbia's Rare Book and Manuscript Library. On that visit, Mr. Buffett’s moving words about Ben Graham’s kindness and generosity inspired her to write her most popular blog post: Ben Graham & Warren Buffett’s Bond (By Ben’s Granddaughter). Charlotte was fortunate to have known her grandfather well. She had just turned sixteen when he asked her to join him on a three-week cruise from Italy to the Black Sea. The Memoirs he wrote on that cruise have become her cherished resource for fathoming his inner life. Charlotte also has unique access to a gift from her mother, Ben Graham’s eldest daughter—a trove of Ben Graham’s unpublished writings and letters. Charlotte wrote a blog post about a postcard Ben Graham wrote to Warren Buffett from the port of Odessa, on that cruise. Charlotte is passionate about unearthing the Story behind the Legend, starting from the boyhood experiences that wounded and shaped him. In her blog, she shares the inspiring story of how Ben Graham moved through setbacks and losses, left Wall Street behind, healed his wounds, and found fulfillment—not from accumulating wealth and possessions, but from creativity, connection, and love.
