It’s also funny when you see their performance charted against Warren Buffet’s. Looks like Warren is a rank amateur who knows very little about the markets and buying companies for the right price compared to the likes of Nancy who must be a supreme multitasker and stock picker.

People have been strung up for less than what counts as business as usual in contemporary, rotten to the core, American business & politics.
