1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorGreg Abel, who took over Berkshire Hathaway from Warren Buffett, has made three big homebuilding moves, while admitting there's no quick recovery coming for housing.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTamsin, what does a housing slump have to do with breakfast?

4. TO

   Tamsin Okonkwo-HaleHank, everything. I wake at five, stir my oat milk with a gold trowel, and break ground on the day.

5. TO

   Tamsin Okonkwo-HaleUse code DREAMHOME for forty percent off.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMr. Abel said the recovery will be slow. How does a slow recovery fit a morning routine?

7. TO

   Tamsin Okonkwo-HaleSlow is the whole product. My kit is built for waiting, and that's before the code, which is now sixty percent off.

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorLet me ask you directly. Do you own a home, Tamsin?

11. TO

    Tamsin Okonkwo-HaleI own the mindset, and the mindset has a lovely room above a vape shop. And that's before the code, which is ninety percent off.

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYou're dodging me, Tamsin. Does that room actually count as owning a home?

13. TO

    Tamsin Okonkwo-HaleIt has a window, Hank. The trowel fits the window. Abel believes the American dream will continue to exist, and so do I, nightly.
