With This Refund, You Could Buy Salt And Maybe Even 100 Shares of BOREF

July 31, 2003February 23, 2017

‘I GOT MY DUBYA REFUND!’

Mark D Hiatt: ‘I thought you’d want to know: I got paid today – my first check under the new tax plan. Thanks to Dubya rolling back income tax rates, I now make an additional $4.78 per month, *every* month. Now I can afford that extra magazine I’ve always wanted! ($30,000, married with no children, wife works too).’

I read COD by the same author, and it was excellent.’ (Writes one reader: ‘A talented writer, he manages to make salt suspenseful.’)

And, as always, I have to assume the company will fail, simply because the breakthroughs it envisions are staggering. Still, as long-time readers well know, I own a preposterous number of shares, and so I live in hope.

‘If this is class warfare, then my class is winning.’
– Warren Buffett
