Berkshire fortune simulator
Turn a fixed March 2026 snapshot of Warren Buffett's fortune into houses, rail assets, insurance float, Dairy Queen cashflow, NetJets convenience, and legacy-scale philanthropy.
Most billionaire simulators go loud. This one leans quieter: paper tones, balance-sheet cues, and the feeling of flipping through an annual report that somehow lets you buy locomotives.
The fun is in the range. You can stay sensible with batteries and candy, then escalate into wind farms, buybacks, and moves large enough to bend industries.
Snapshot date: 2026-03-10. The amount is intentionally fixed so the experience stays fast, testable, and comparable over time.
