Nice package :o ...thanks for noticing :wink:

Did anyone see the picture that they had in the Sam's Club magazine to advertise this? It was a giant Jimmy standing over the Las Vegas strip. Kind like Godzilla in a mango colored shirt, holding a guitar :D

I couldn't afford the Buffett package, so I had to settle for a holiday buffet package instead. 8)

I'm working on it. I need to Photoshop some of the wording out of there and just make it Jimmy and the skyline. I will post it in this thread as soon as I finish it up :D

I got it. I told the bank, f you, I will not pay the equity loan off. I also told the mortgage company to shove it. I have more important things to blow 30g's on. Food? Nah. Plenty of garbage cans to eat out of, $30,000 worth! Flu shots? I'd rather spread it then pay for that. I'll use a bike to travel. It may take me 7 years to go west, but hey, $30,000 went to a worthy cause. Okay, I do have to work 45 hours a day to cover the cost, but hey it's Buffett! I think 30g's for the yellow album is money worth spent!
:lol:
At least Buffett is not making a profit on this. (short term) That's why I like the guy.
