So thank you, Uncle Sam. Someday your nieces and nephews at Berkshire hope to send you even larger payments than we did in 2024. Spend it wisely. Take care of the many who, for no fault of their own, get the short straws in life. They deserve better. And never forget that we need you to maintain a stable currency, and that result requires both wisdom and vigilance on your part.

My wise and good-looking sister, Birdie, of whom I wrote last year, will be attending the meeting along with two of her daughters, both good-looking as well.

We cover the joys of old age and discuss such exciting topics as the relative merits of our canes.
