Thousands gather in Omaha, Nebraska, not for a music festival, but to attend the Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholders meeting, often likened to "Woodstock for capitalism." The event features a five-hour session where 93-year-old billionaire Warren Buffett, alongside other business luminaries, answers questions on the economy. Attendees, including celebrities and major business figures, value the insights from Buffett, whose company holds significant stakes in major corporations.
The meeting, costing as low as $396 for entry, is more than just speeches; it includes a secret annual film, a picnic, and a 5K run, with festivities starting on Friday. Devotees, some of whom have been attending for decades, describe the event as a blend of networking, entertainment, and investment wisdom. The weekend allows for unique interactions, from meeting NFL players to taking selfies with Buffett himself, making it a memorable experience for followers and fans from around the globe.
