TJ, congratulations on your pours after converting oil to gold. Fortunately, there is lots of oil, so you should be able to keep going. These words are an oil salesman's dream: <pics of second pour just in, one week's worth of diligence, of digging, trucking, crushing, milling, floating, melting, pouring, and weighing. > Drums and drums and tankers of fuels and lubricants. And all that iron is also made of oil in a similar mining and production processes and then more complex work to form it into jaw crushers, truck chassis, excavator buckets, nuts and bolts.

That bottom photo has the shape of a Samsung Cyberphone, but not so gorgeous. The dore looks nice and silvery but would be too heavy and not strong enough to make into a Cyberphone. Inside the Samsung SIII is some square silicon, Made by Qualcomm. It's more valuable than gold. And it does a lot more too.

TJ, classic thoughts from Mr. Munger ....you know John D Rockerfeller had Andrew Flagler as his early Partner.... and Standard Oil would not have been built without the outgoing and leadership nature that Flagler provided to consolidate the Refining business.

Buffet would not be were he is with out Munger...

Gates would not be were he is without Paul Allen.

Steve Jobs...... did Wozniak........

and so on and so on and so on.
