what if they get bought? Why would they sell themselves? Would you sell your hetauda bank in the middle of counting the number of golds that you've just found and you see plenty more? Wouldn't you ask the buyer to "wait" until you're done counting? By the way, I'm not here to sell this stock. More interested in exchanging ideas and learn something and move on with life. But yes, I'm stuck with the Oil boom phobia. I might just go for a week long drive of mid west just to gather more ideas. Also you mention you follow Warren Buffett, can you tell me the reason why buffett bought Burlington Santa Fe (railway) and what about those remote newspapers? Any thoughts on that? Do you analyse why he buys what he buys? Thanks.
