Parsad Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Dear Friends, Hope all is well. This year, we will be holding two E-bay auctions to benefit Dakshana Foundation: 1) The 4th annual power lunch with me for you and up to 7 of your friends, and 2) A 30 minute conference call with me for you and up to 4 of your friends. For the lunch, I'll be delighted to dine with the winning bidder and up to seven friends on a mutually agreed upon date, anywhere in Southern California or on Friday, September 18th, 2015 in Chicago or in April 2015 in New York City or any metro city in India or any other mutually agreeable location. And I'll pick up the tab for the lunch as well. I have also added a bonus for the winner: They get my old wallet which, it is rumored, includes a stock tip. For the conference call, we will find a mutually agreeable time for me to host a 30 minute conference call for you and your friends. A stock tip is rumored to be offered on the call. In the true spirit of a market-driven auction, the starting bid is set at $0.01 with no minimum. You can bid on these auctions at the following links: Power Lunch with Mohnish - Ebay Item #121466549354 Conference Call with Mohnish - Ebay Item #121466555194 The lunch auction will begin on Tuesday, October 21st and end at 4:00 p.m. PST on Friday, October 31st. The conference call auction will begin on Tuesday, October 28th and end at 4:00 p.m. PST on Friday, November 7th. 100% of the proceeds go to benefit Dakshana Scholars. The money could not go to a better cause. Happy bidding! Warmly, Mohnish Pabrai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

constructive Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 The last three lunches have been $20K, $18K and $17K. But I think they have also involved a smaller number of people. Anyone interested in forming an 8 person group bidding ~$3000 each? I'm on the east coast so I'd prefer NYC, or even better DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzCactus Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 As a 25 year old, hoping to slowly and surely build up a high net worth, the opportunity cost of this lunch is way too high. Although, I am sure it is well worth it given Mohnish's wisdom and insights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
