I'll scout out a location today and set this up as I'll be in the area. Does Tuesday the 25th work? like around 630pm at a pub/restaurant at bloor and yonge?

 

Please indicate if you are interested by replying so I can get an estimate of numbers. Last time I think we had 6 but feel it might be bigger this time.

Total round trip from Fairview Mall on the rocket is $6. Have one less drink at dinner.  :P

 

Well, in that case, if the location is Fairview Mall, then I will pay for the $6 commute fee for everyone if http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=FFH.TO reaches $600/share by the time this meet-up takes place!  Nothing is impossible any more 8)

 

Alternatively, we can go further to Markville Mall in Markham where the new gigantic Sporting Life store is located:

This way, while you're there, you can buy a genuine Canada Goose jacket for your family members! ;D

It was great to see everyone last night.

 

I set up a portfolio tracker using Google Finance assuming everyone bought or sold short one share of his best idea using yesterday's closing price. I will make another update in 6 months.  And when we meet around the same time next year, we can have another interesting discussion.

 

Cheers!

Did Buffett Groupie make it?

 

Nope.  Must've been the price of downtown parking...?

 

That's why I joked upthread about the $3 subway fare.  :P

See, if Doug Ford was mayor, we'd all have a subway line at our door making travel seamless and convenient.

 

Yet every picture I've ever seen from Omaha seems to have Buffett Groupie in it. Same with the FF dinner downtown too.  ;D

I really wanted to go until you folks changed it to downtown even after I generously offered to pay for the first round of drinks for everyone if 1) the meet-up is at Fairview Mall (end of Sheppard subway line) and 2) FFH.TO reaches $600 by 11/25 :)

 

By the way, you folks are welcome to hold the next one in Markham where Sporting Life recently opened a gigantic store at Markville Mall! LOL  ;D
