Not the same attention as Mr. Trump.Omaha toadies to their corporations on a civic level (i.e. rampant corporate welfare because they are afraid new industry won't locate there) but they aren't really into CEO worship per se. If anyone is Donald Trump in Omaha, it's Warren Buffet.
Where does he shop? lol

It's time I buy some stock so I can read the annual reports. Mr. Davidson never comes to Chicago on his train it seems like. Maybe he does his shopping in Seattle or LA.
Lots of executives stay on past 65. Social Security and Medicare does not define retirement for these folks.
