speaking of forbes and warren buffet and housing here's an article from forbes from almost 1 year ago "Warren Buffett’s company Clayton Homes, the biggest mobile home manufacturer in the U.S., has continued to profit from high interest rate loans. The Oracle of Omaha has sold low-income Americans the dream of ownership for nearly 20 years, and his investment company Berkshire Hathaway makes money on the loans, since they own the company that Clayton urges its buyers to go through. Many of the people buying these homes are minorities and have helped to fuel Clayton’s $13.7 billion mortgage portfolio."so warren buffet doesn't even need to buy people homes, he could just give them his back stock

I might tick enough boxes if I learned French. I already speak English and have Canadian relatives. Or, I could send my daughter first- she has a college degree, fluent in English & French, and has the same Canadian relatives. Not that I've thought about it or anything, lol.

Right? It's like a really bad divorce, the kind where you'll let them take the house, the car, a kidney, your life savings- anything just please GTFO. I don't really care if he relocates the whole Lincoln bedroom to one of his garish gold-plated shit-holes. Just go.
