1. 要知道一家经典企业由一个企业家终其一生，有时以致是好几代，以无微不至的埋头与优异的才气创建时，对於老板来说，接手的人是否承续过去辉煌的历史是相当紧张的一件事，关於这点，查理跟我相当有信心，Berkshire绝对可以提供这些企业一个美满的归宿，我们相当重视对於这些企业创办人所作的保证，而Berkshire的控股结构绝对可以确保我们的承诺顺爽利实，当我们见告John Justin他的企业总部仍将留在FortWorth或保证Bridge眷属他们的公司绝不会与其他珠宝公司合并时，我们但是绝对说到做到。
When a business masterpiece has been created by a lifetime - or severallifetimes - of unstinting care and exceptional talent, it should beimportant to the owner what corporation is entrusted to carry on itshistory. Charlie and I believe Berkshire provides an almost unique home. Wetake our obligations to the people who created a business very seriously, and Berkshire`s ownership structure ensures that we canfulfill our promises. When we tell John Justin that his business will remainadquartered in Fort Worth, or assure the Bridge family that its operationwill not be merged with another jeweler, these sellers can take thosepromises to the bank.
