On top of that, Buffett is considering a 1-for-10 reverse split of the "A" shares!

My hat is off to Buffet once again. Looks like he will close out another great year for his stock. Amazing return considering his "AUM" if you can call it that.

Should have, could have... I should have bought GOOG when it was trading with 2-digits.

I bought a stock back in 2000 for $5 and 7 years later it's up to $15.

14.50 or 15.50 a share at the beginning I'm pretty sure - when he was buying the New England mills.

After Buffett dies?........a 10,000-for-1 stock split of course!
