How to be a billionaire

$2,110,100 wins lunch with Warren Buffett

Dear Cute Little Girl,

First of all, for the $2,110,100 you could have gone to a better place than the Dairy Queen for your lunch with Mr. Buffett. But kudos on your winning bid, and I hope you made Mr. Buffett explain to you how he became a billionaire. As a Girl Scout with several merit badges and the gumption to do enough after-school chores to raise $2,110,100, I think it's a safe bet that you'll go far.
