US and Denmark reach deal over Greenland

The deal gives the U.S. total control over Greenland's security and ensures no U.S. adversary can ever have a base there.

Howard Buffett will become head of the board to steward the culture and values, while Greg Abel runs capital allocation and operations as CEO. Warren Buffett capitalized on long-term value investing, holding companies for decades rather than chasing quick-hit trends. Berkshire has underperformed the S&P 500 this year, but long-term shareholders remain believers in the company's vision beyond short-term stock performance.

He and Andrew Taylor decided to buy the game, play it in its entirety, and record a podcast to stay accountable to finishing it.
