Why Buffett bought Clayton

  • Article

Been reading Warren Buffett's Letter to Berkshire Hathaway's shareholders in their 2003 Annual Report. It contains a great anecdote about how a group of students from the University of Tennessee helped him decide to purchase Clayton Homes. Really worth a read.

    Just discovered the Berkshire-Hathaway website a few weeks ago http://www.berkshirehathaway.com/. Mr. Buffett's annual reports and 'Owner's Manual' are invaluable and interesting reads, and it's amazing how such a simple site is so useful.

    I asked them if they could send me a printed copy of them, since one of them was 74 pages at last count, and toner is expensive. Plus I can't afford the $85K for a share of stock.

    Based on their web site note below I don't think I'm going to get a response any time soon:

    If you have any comments about our WEB page, you can either write us at the address shown above or e-mail us at berkshire@berkshirehathaway.com. However, due to the limited number of personnel in our corporate office, we are unable to provide a direct response.

    If anyone's speaking with Warren, ask him to subscribe me to his mailing lists or weblog when he gets one set up. Hopefully Bill Gates gets him blogging soon.
