Unfortunately, your display of self-righteousness has a bit of a flaw.

The investment was Tuesday's news and on Wednesday he got put on credit watch by S&P because of it.

Alexi, leave business to the grown ups. Stick to SEO. Oh hang on, remember this.

Yeah and he also knows that the US, with its vast natural resources and lowish population density is fundamentally sound and will bounce back from any economic downturn. Meanwhile the UK, having squandered its natural resources is left fliped, and will be sucked dry and the corpse picked clean by the EU before being ejected unceremoniously from the union to be left an overpopulated economic basket case. That was World War III lost, an economic one this time.

Doesn't matter how many times you tell 'em what the plan is. The won't believe you.

I wish someone would fix the British railways. We don't have an extreme climate and the trains can be kept pretty full in our densely populated country... should be able to slash prices and keep it afloat.

Bloomberg: Berkshire May Lose AAA From S&P on Burlington Deal

Nov. 4 (Bloomberg) -- Warren Buffett’sBerkshire Hathaway Inc. is more likely to be stripped of its AAA rating by Standard & Poor’s after the company agreed yesterday to pay $26 billion to acquire railroad Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corp.

“This transaction will decrease the liquidity and capital adequacy of the insurance operations” at Omaha, Nebraska-based Berkshire, the ratings company said in a statement today placing Buffett’s firm on “CreditWatch with negative implications.”
