In addition to being a top bridge player, Warren Buffett does all right at Monopoly. He landed on a railroad yesterday, Burlington Northern, and bought it for about $26 billion. I didn't know there was that much Monopoly money in existence!

In any case, if you own BNI stock, your shares jumped from about $65 to $97. Some think railroads are obsolete, and I guess I agree for long distance passenger travel. Not for freight though. Still pretty cost efficient. And the world's richest man usually gets it right!
