One of the companies Buffet corporate raided was Fairmont Foods. I seem to recall that the year he finished breaking it up and selling the real estate of Fairmont Foods (and then dumping the stock) his fund's return on investment was 169%. It is also interesting that he claims that the estate tax is a great thing yet has arranged his affairs to avoid paying any. It must just be good for other people. Full Disclosure: I own less than 30 BRK-B.
