Annual combine ride along with my favorite land owner Marsha Kibbey.

She said this farm has been farmed by her family for 157 years.

Marsha’s grandaughter is a biomedical engineer. She said to me “you sir farm like you have a practice. You are always trying things and observing the results like my daughter does.” I thought that was a cool thought. Farms, farmers have a practice.

This woman WANTED your cost of living to spike, and boy, did it.

Mary Daly called for it. She helped permanently harm millions.

She's batshit crazy & does not think like a normal person.

Get her the f off the air. She needs to be fired.

The role of grandchildren is to prompt a grandparent to tell the stories of their life.

This is the relationship that gives meaning to the suffering of life. The distillation of the only inheritance that matters: wisdom.

Marc Andreessen revealed how Harvard Business School was built on a broken 1941 theory, and how it's now collapsing...

Andreessen co-founded Netscape in 1994 and a16z in 2009.

He has sat on Meta's board since 2008.

He has spent 30 years backing founders and watching managerial CEOs lose to them.

The pattern traces back to one book: James Burnham's The Machiavellians (1941).

Burnham argued every great company had been founder-run.

Henry Ford ran Ford. Bob Noyce ran Intel.

Today, Elon Musk runs Tesla, SpaceX, and Starlink.

Then, he said, something broke.

Between the 1880s and the 1920s, a new philosophy replaced the founder. It was called managerialism.

The professional manager would now hold a portable skill, usable across any business.

The consequences were:

- Harvard Business School
- Stanford Business School
- Management as a universal skill
- The 1970s conglomerate

"That assumes the managers are going to do a good job," Andreessen says.

For 30 years, they haven't.

Managers can run something static, he says. Soup is soup. A bank is a bank. A car is a car.

But when the industry changes, the manager freezes.

Look at SpaceX.

"Imagine being a professionally trained manager, trained at a top management school, working for a rocket launch company, competing with SpaceX."

Then Elon's rockets started landing on their butt.

"Your management skills ... what good are they at that point?"

Andreessen's conclusion:

"You're much more likely to build something important in the 21st century if you start with the founder and train them on management."

Buffett: A CEO calls and says he has a great deal for you and all you wanted was a 6% discount to last trade?

Abel: It was a chance to invest in a company you said we missed

Munger: The miss was in 2003

Abel: The bankers all said we got it cheap to where would could buy it

Buffett: Wait, your tipping point was banker praise?

Abel: They congratulated me on the deal

Munger: Did you get a deal toy?

Buffett: What else are we doing because “the bankers” said so

Abel: I think you are both over reacting. Its one trade

Buffett: You just pissed away 20% of our profits from Japanese trading houses

Munger: Maybe he doesn’t like sushi

Abel: David Sokol said he loved our trade and owns in his PA

28 of the 37 long-haul routes tried from Las Vegas since 2000 have ended. This week Edelweiss dropped Zurich, and Virgin Atlantic reportedly won't bring back Manchester. Aer Lingus leaves Dublin December 3.

Why can't Vegas keep these flights? I count 3 reasons.
