Does anyone own this stock? A or B? I am a WB fan, but after reading his annual report, he is fearful of the insurance exposure with the limited catastrophe's in the last 2 years. He writes it won't continue, so they are exposed. Anyone have thoughts on this stock for the LONG term? Was thinking of a few shares of B as an education investment for child.

Expensive is relative though. No different then 100 shares of a 45 dollar stock. I just think the diversification the fund has is tremendous. But the worrisome holding is insurance. He has dodged bullets, and that has paid off. Just wonder how much longer he can do that. I have a long-term horizon though.
He is too smart not to have his successors lined up. From what I've read, he has 4 that he has approved, and upon his leaving, the board will be able to appoint. And most who work for him have come from other successful businesses, so they aren't there for the money.Can Barack tell me what a "typical" white person is please?

the only thing i've feared with buying this stock, whether it's the A or B is that he's damn old, close to retirement and or medical issues. I can see this bring the stock value down if something is said or linked to his everyday life. He is the most powerful man in the stock market, but i don't think his right hand man who will take over his company will be nearly as powerful. My 2c...

Check that out and you might get an idea of how much exposure he has to the credit market as I really don't know except for WFC which to me is a solid stock.

I've said it once and i'll keep on saying it to everyone i know, WFC is a GREAT buy. The company has great managment and they really aren't exposed to the morgage crisis. This company i've been buying for over a month now, and i'm going to keep buying, cuz once the financial instutions get all there debt cleared, i think this one will take off way before the others even sniff a increase in there shares.
