ENTROPIA UNIVERSE INVITES WARREN BUFFETT TO PLAY GAME AND MAKE SOME REAL MONEY Calypso Land Deeds bring in 105% return over three years Gothenburg, Sweden – December 16, 2014 /Entropia Universe/ – Entropia Universe AB, the largest Massively Multiplayer Online Real Cash Economy (MMORCE) game, today invited renowned business magnate and billionaire investor Warren Buffett to try out the game and start getting a real return on his investments. With the game’s Calypso Land Deeds selling for just $140.00 almost everyone has the chance to invest. Mr. Buffett’s net worth is estimated at over $74 Billion yet it is rumored he does not yet own a high performance spaceship, though he is a consummate businessman. Using nothing but his financial acumen he’s never been required to destroy a single robot to make it big on Planet Calypso in Entropia Universe. He can, however, achieve a higher rate of return than he currently sees through Berkshire Hathaway, where he is CEO. The Calypso Land Deeds (CLD) were introduced to the public on November 28, 2011 with a starting price of $100 (1,000 Project Entropia Dollars, PED). The first weekly dividend was paid out on December 5, 2011 and have been paid out every week since. Dividends earned to date total $65.54 for the three-year period from November 28, 2011 to November 28, 2014. Meanwhile the CLD has appreciated from $100 to $140 during the same period. Thus the total yield for Calypso Land Deeds is 105% ($40 in appreciation + $65.54 in dividends = $105.54 on an initial investment of $100) over the three-year period November 2011-November 2014. Meanwhile stock quotes for Berkshire Hathaway show 96.6% for the same three-year period of November 28, 2011 to November 28, 2014. In fact if he joins today Entropia Universe may even throw that high performance spaceship as a holiday gift.

Weird.... the press release itself is an invite, but was there any actual communication between him and MA? That would be more interesting imo.
OMG, April Fools' Day for the second time in a month (and it's December) ??? Seems like MA has a new marketing guy with weird preferences.
Initially I was like: Shortly after followed by: While actually, this about sums it all up: I'm quite sure that Mr Buffett will jump at the occasion to toss his money into a non-regulated environment where the overseer is at its sole discretion to change whatever the fook they want, at times even retiring systems for 5 (!) years while leaving those who "invested" in that system hanging.
Very interesting. Hopefully there will be more info and what his avatars name is and when he'll be crossing space with all his lootables!
nope, same ol silly pr guy... http://www.gamasutra.com/view/press...FETT_TO_PLAY_GAME_ANDMAKE_SOME_REAL_MONEY.php https://entropiarelated.wordpress.com/2012/10/27/traction-pr-lives/ It is all nothing but a SEO (search engine optimization) stunt like many pulled by Mindark before. I wonder what Buffett would say about 'insider trading' stuff going on in game?
time for some more positive buffet invites... http://abc7news.com/archive/9256151/ http://beazag.gonzaga.edu/home/zags-inspired/a-day-with-warren-buffett/ happy holly daze http://www.huffingtonpost.com/stephanie-d-lewis/should-you-invite-warren-buffett_b_6229082.html
