Frank Fitzpatrick bought ~200 shares of Berkshire Hathaway (BRK-B) at $40 in 1976, sold after 14 months when the stock doubled, then bought back in at a higher price.
Fitzpatrick used his Berkshire gains to buy a Lake Tahoe lakefront home, fund an education nonprofit, and leave shares to his two children.
Fitzpatrick's habit of running back to Berkshire despite a painful early exit shows temperament, not timing, drives long-term investing success.

In 1995, a family gathered on the deck of a newly purchased lakefront home in Lake Tahoe, Nevada. According to The Wall Street Journal, they came together "for a group hug and said, 'Thank you, Warren'". The homeowner was Frank Fitzpatrick, a Lake Tahoe tax lawyer known to friends as "Forty-Dollar Frank."

A Miami-area man filed a lawsuit accusing a Canadian heiress and her husband, a former reality TV personality, of borrowing $2 million and failing to repay it.
Named in the suit are Brendan Fitzpatrick, 38, who appeared on Rich Kids of Beverly Hills, and Chloe de Serigny, 31, the granddaughter of late financier Paul Desmarais, according to the Daily Mail.
In the federal complaint, Max Jan Fowles-Pazdro, 46, says Fitzpatrick convinced him in January 2025 to put up a $2 million bridge loan for a real estate project in the United Kingdom.
"Following repeated and increasingly desperate pleas from [Fitzpatrick] — [Fowles-Pazdro's] then-close friend — [Fowles-Pazdro] dug into his and his wife's life savings and funded a $2 million bridge loan that Brendan promised to begin repaying within six weeks," the filing stated, per the Daily Mail. "Two years have since elapsed — and not a penny of the loan has been repaid. With their nest egg gone, [Fowles-Pazdro] and his wife now teeter on financial ruin."
The suit also says the couple has continued to present an image of affluence, pointing to social media photos of them on a yacht in the Mediterranean.

Sep. 10—To preview Washington State's next game, a road test against Big 12 foe Kansas State, The Spokesman-Review conferred with K-State beat writer Ryan Gilbert, who covers the Wildcats for GoPowercat.
Here is our Q&A.
1. How did K-State's offensive line look against Nicholls, and do the injuries to John Pastore and George Fitzpatrick look to hamper the Cats as much as it might seem?
The offensive line checked all the boxes it could on Saturday. There were a lot of questions surrounding this group entering the season, but game No. 1 was a success. That being said, Nicholls is just not a good football team, so it's tough to get too excited over that performance in the trenches. K-State simply had the bigger, more physically dominant dudes at the point of contact. Anything other than a promising night would have been a concern for the offensive line.
George Fitzpatrick not being able to give it a go didn't help matters, but Collin Klein & Co. certainly couldn't have been caught off guard when they learned he had to be sidelined this season. His health condition from last offseason just lingered and lingered, so it's not like this just happened out of nowhere. There was ample time to create a backup plan. John Pastore, though, was supposed to be not just a starter but a true star at left tackle. His injury, which will sideline him for the season, happened about a month before the season, and then Tanner Morley also had to miss some time late in camp, so everything kind of just compounded at once.

This week's Irish Open marks the start of a strong slate of DP World Tour events that will see a large contingent of international LIV Golf players mix with some of their notable PGA Tour peers as the former await clarity on their league's future.
Jon Rahm will tee it up in Ireland alongside fellow LIV members Tyrrell Hatton, Joaquin Niemann, Sergio Garcia, Adrian Meronk, David Puig, Tom McKibbin, and Thomas Detry. PGA Tour players in the field include defending Irish Open champion Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka, Shane Lowry, Alex Fitzpatrick, and Patrick Reed, who has recently completed his one-year suspension from the PGA Tour for joining LIV in 2022.
Many of those LIV and PGA Tour players will also compete at next week's BMW PGA Championship, which is part of the DP World Tour's elevated Rolex Series and has a $9 million purse. The Irish Open, which begins Thursday, has a $6 million purse but still offers a key opportunity for LIV players to earn Official World Golf Ranking points as they remain banned from the PGA Tour amid LIV's uncertain future heading into 2027. The league laid off most of its staff last week and is still working on finalizing a new funding deal with BC Partners Credit, following the Saudi PIF's exit.
Rahm told BBC Sports on Tuesday that "time will tell" what happens regarding his playing future as he is "more than willing to fulfill" his LIV contract that has multiple years remaining reportedly still worth more than $100 million. PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp said last month that there are "no current plans" for another Returning Member Program like the one that brought Koepka back to the Tour in January—and was also available to Rahm and fellow LIV stars Bryson Dechambeau and Cam Smith.
While the DP World Tour will continue to provide vital playing opportunities for LIV players this fall, things could change next year. Nine LIV players, including Rahm, were granted conditional releases for the 2026 season that allowed them to retain the DP World Tour membership despite competing in some conflicting LIV events. But it is "highly unlikely" that those same conditional releases will be available in 2027, sources have previously told Front Office Sports.

The PGA Tour finished the 2026 season, which concluded Sunday, with a modest viewership increase over last year, which had brought a significant ratings ******* p after a big dip in 2024.
Weekend coverage of PGA Tour events in 2026, excluding the four major championships, averaged 2.7 million viewers on CBS and NBC.
That's up 1% compared to the 2025 season average when using Nielsen's Big Data + Panel methodology (2.6 million), and up 17% when compared to Nielsen's panel-only numbers (2.3 million). Big Data became Nielsen's standard measurement formula on Sept. 1, 2025, after last year's PGA Tour season concluded.
In 2024, the PGA Tour's season-long average for weekend coverage on linear networks was 1.9 million viewers using panel-only measurements, which was standard at the time; that figure is 2.3 million when retroactively applying Big Data.
This season, no PGA Tour player won more than three times (Scottie Scheffler, Wyndham Clark, Matt Fitzpatrick, Chris Gotterup). Scheffler dominated the PGA Tour the previous two seasons with six wins in 2025 and seven in 2024, including three majors (but none this year). Scheffler, the season-long FedExCup champion, did have an additional five runner-up finishes this year.

If you're an avid reader of Acme Packing Company, you know that I feel like the Green Bay Packers show their cards a bit when it comes to pre-draft visitors. Since 2022, when the Packers appeared to have changed their visit strategy from almost being used exclusively on undrafted free agent rookie recruiting to more of a mix of picks and free agent prospects, Green Bay has signed, traded for, drafted or claimed on waivers 36 players who were pre-draft visitors with the team.
Often, when these players become available (some of them never become available, because they were high draft picks who were picked before the Packers were on the clock), Green Bay ends up targeting them in some way or another. While players like Darian Kinnard, John FitzPatrick and Josh Whyle weren't originally picked by the Packers, they did find their way to Green Bay later in their careers.
So, when a pre-draft visitor becomes available, my radar always goes up, especially if it's the first time the Packers have had a shot at bringing them to Green Bay since draft weekend. That's the case right now with New York Giants running back Damon Bankston, who was waived by the team on Saturday.
Bankston took a pre-draft visit with the Packers this spring, but ended up signing with the Giants for $115,000 guaranteed, far more than Green Bay spent on their UDFA running back signing, Jaden Nixon — who was added to the offseason roster for $15,000 guaranteed.
The New Mexico product was an interesting sleeper prospect in the class of 2026, as he posted 635 rushing yards (5.6 yards per carry), five touchdowns on the ground and caught 31 ****** for 397 yards and three touchdowns (12.8 yards per reception, a very high number for backs) through the air in his one year of FBS football. The numbers don't exactly look incredible from a volume perspective, but he was very efficient in the 9-4 Lobos' running back by committee (and he led the team in yards from scrimmage).

No history, no problem.
Min Woo Lee took on East Lake Golf Club on Thursday with the expertise of a seasoned veteran — only thing is the 28-year-old Aussie was playing his first competitive round at the course.
The lack of familiarity never showed itself during the opening round for Lee, who tied a career low with a bogey-free, 8-under 62 to take the clubhouse lead into the second round.
Lee, who was playing by himself after J.J. Spaun withdrew in the middle of the round with a right shoulder injury, is one of six players making their debut at the Tour Championship this week. The other players include Americans Ryan Gerard and Alex Smalley, Tour rookies Alex Fitzpatrick and Kristoffer Reitan and 2026 Open champ Ryan Fox.
Something about Oceanic players is fitting the course's conditions this week. Like Lee, Fox is near the top of the leaderboard after carding a 4-under 66 and showing no signs of discomfort at East Lake.

The Milwaukee Brewers are set to face the Mets in New York this week, as the Crew looks to continue their winning ways. The Brewers, at 81-50 this season, sit firmly atop the NL Central after winning each of their last three series against the Dodgers, Mariners, and Braves. The Mets, at 59-72, sit at the bottom of the NL East with the sixth-worst record in baseball. They've actually been a bit better the last couple of weeks, with a 6-3 record against the Nationals, Padres, and White Sox.
Milwaukee's lone position player on the IL is outfielder Sal Frelick, who is expected to return for this road trip. However, the team suffered a pair of injuries in Sunday's Little League Classic, as outfielder Garrett Mitchell exited after being hit by a pitch with what was categorized as a right forearm contusion, and first baseman Jake Bauers, who has been playing with a toe fracture this season, fouled a ball off his leg/foot, though he remained in the game. It's unclear if either player will miss more time, but overall, not the worst news on that front. On the mound, the Brewers are without Brandon Woodruff (potentially back before the end of the year after not needing surgery), JoJo Romero (late August), Abner Uribe (could be activated on Wednesday), Rob Zastryzny (TBD), Joel Kuhnel (late August), Brian Fitzpatrick (out for season), Quinn Priester (out for season), and Angel Zerpa (out for season).
The Mets are without first baseman Mark Vientos (on rehab ******* ignment), outfielder Juan Soto (September), and infielder Jorge Polanco (out for season). Old friend Devin Williams is on the injured list with a shoulder strain that will keep him out until at least September. Fellow pitchers Cionel Pérez (September), Justin Hagenman (TBD), Tylor Megill (out for season), and Reed Garrett (out for season) are also out.
Jake Bauers leads the Brewer offense with 23 homers, 19 doubles, and 75 RBIs this season, as he's slashing .273/.382/.503 in the best season of his career. Jackson Chourio, Brice Turang, William Contreras, Joey Ortiz, and Andrew Vaughn are among the other key contributors in recent weeks, while veteran Christian Yelich continues to suffer from the bad-luck bug. Gary Sánchez, Garrett Mitchell, David Hamilton, Cooper Pratt, and Luis Lara are also in the regular mix, with Jonathan Ornelas serving as some infield depth. As a team, the Brewers are hitting .254/.337/.396 (.733 OPS ranks seventh), with 120 homers (last), 650 runs scored (fifth), and 129 steals (third).
With Soto out, Carson Benge, Bo Bichette, Marcus Semien, Francisco Lindor, and Francisco Alvarez lead New York's offense. Benge has 16 homers, 17 doubles, 53 RBIs, and 19 steals in what has been a solid season overall, while Bichette, Semien, and Lindor are all have down years by their standards. Jared Young, A.J.

Scottie Scheffler's going to win the PGA Tour money ****** le after the Tour Championship Aug. 27-30 at the East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta unless he has a total collapse and Cameron Young, Matt Fitzpatrick or Wyndham Clark win and take home the $10 million first-place check.
Scheffler's tie for 12th at the BMW Championship on Aug. 23 at Bellerive in St. Louis earned $426,250 and ****** ped his total earnings this season to $20,937,524. Young ($14,408,482), Fitzpatrick ($14,271,066) and BMW winner Clark ($14,236186) are the only players who can catch Scheffler for the money ****** le, and they need to win for that to happen. The $5 million second-place check won't cut it.
And a victory is no guarantee. If Young, for example, wins the Tour Championship and Scheffler finishes solo third ($3,705,000), he'd nose out Young for the money ****** le. Scheffler is guaranteed at least $355,000 for finishing last at East Lake.
No other player can catch Scheffler. Rory McIlroy, in fourth place, has $9,866,606 and a victory doesn't get him to Scheffler's haul through the BMW.
Another money milestone can fall this week. Both Scheffler and McIlroy can pass Tiger Woods on the career money list, a spot Woods has held for more than 26 years, since Feb. 13, 2000.

Florida State senior Jack Whaley is still trying to process what he accomplished last week.
Days after capturing the U.S. Amateur Championship at Merion Golf Club on Aug. 16, Whaley returned to campus as the first Seminole golfer to win the prestigious Havemeyer Trophy and just the third Englishman to claim the ******* le, joining Matt Fitzpatrick (2013) and Harold Hilton (1911).
For Whaley, the victory represents the culmination of years of work and a remarkable rise from the NAIA ranks at Dalton State, where he set the record for shooting 8 under to win the national championship in 2025, to represent the Seminoles on one of amateur golf's biggest stages.
He credited head coach Trey Jones on Aug. 20 for bringing him to Tallahassee and grooming him into an elite golfer.
"It means the most," Whaley said. "For Coach (Trey) Jones and the coaching staff to take a chance on me last year after playing NAIA golf, and now to be sitting in this position, I can't thank them enough. For them to be there with me and experience it, I think it's an incredible memory for all of us, and something we'll cherish forever."

Revealed on Friday afternoon, a trio of Alabama Crimson Tide players have been named to the preseason watch list for the 2026 Chuck Bednarik Award.
Each of those three are returning starters on the Crimson Tide's defense, two of which are defensive backs in senior safety Bray Hubbard and junior cornerback Zabien Brown. Yhonzae Pierre, a senior outside linebacker, was also part of the preseason watch list.
The Bednarik Award is presented annually to the nation's top defensive player in college football. Alabama has seen three players receive the honor previously in Jonathan Allen (2016), Minkah Fitzpatrick (2017), and most recently, Will Anderson Jr. (2022).
Of the three, Hubbard is Alabama's top returning tackler from a year ago with 79 total, with the safety leading the SEC with four interceptions. Brown, who recorded 39 tackles, led college football with two interceptions returned for a touchdown, while Pierre was Alabama's sack and TFL leader a year ago with eight and 14.5, respectively.

FSU's men's golfer Jack Whaley won the 126th U.S. Amateur Championship on Sunday at the Merion Golf Club in Ardmore, Pennsylvania. He is the first Seminole to win the tournament.
The rising senior beat Stanford's Jay Leng Jr. 4&3 over 36 holes to become the first Englishman to win the tournament since Matt Fitzpatrick in 2013 and third overall since 1911. The win earned him a spot in The 2027 Open Championship at St. Andrews and the Walker Cup in September for Great Britain.
He won the first hole with a chip-in to take an early lead and went up two holes by parring the third hole. Leng tied the game on the 10th hole with back-to-back wins. Whaley responded by retaking the lead on the 11th hole before Leng took his first lead of the day on the 13th after winning back-to-back holes.
Whaley ended the first 18 holes trailing by two before they took a short break before playing the final 18 holes. He won four straight holes to go up two after 23 holes. Leng won the 24th, but secured birdies on the 26th and 28th holes to go up three.
He clinched the championship with a birdie putt on the 33rd hole.

Scottie Scheffler is well on his way to winning another PGA Tour money ****** le.
With his lopsided eight-shot victory in the FedEx St. Jude Classic on Aug. 16 at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Scheffler earned $3.6 million and passed the $20 million mark in earnings for the fourth year in a row.
He can't be overtaken this week at the BMW Championship at the Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis, since he has a lead of more than $6 million over Cameron Young and the purse is the same as St. Jude, $20 million overall and $3.6 million for the winner.
Two more decent performances, at the BMW and the Tour Championship Aug. 27-30 at East Lake in Atlanta ($40 million purse, $10 million for the winner) should enable Scheffler to win the money ****** le for a fifth year in a row.
Young doesn't have much a lead in the bankroll department over his next nearest rival, topping third-place Matt Fitzpatrick by less than $185,000.

MANHATTAN — Kansas State football offensive lineman George Fitzpatrick's status for the 2026 season remains a question after missing the entire 2025 season due to a preseason medical emergency.
Wildcats coach Collin Klein said Tuesday, Aug. 11, during his fall camp press conference that Fitzpatrick still has some benchmarks to hit that he, his family, specialists and team doctors agreed upon.
"He's still working through that process," Klein said. "He's not quite there yet."
Klein's sentiment Tuesday echoed what he said last month during Big 12 Media Days in Frisco, Texas. The 6-foot-6, 301-pound offensive tackle transferred to K-State before last season from Ohio State and was expected to be the team's starting left tackle.
Fitzpatrick's absence was felt along an offensive line that wasn't the most consistent. It did, however, open the door for more time for John Pastore, who enters this season as an All-Big 12 offensive tackle.

The Milwaukee Brewers — fresh off a solid 5-2 homestand to push them to 74-44 on the season — are headed back to the West Coast after visiting the Giants and Angels last week. This time, they'll face two slightly more formidable opponents in the Padres and Dodgers. First up is San Diego, currently in a fight for an NL Wild Card spot alongside the Phillies and D-backs (among several others). At 62-57, the Padres have turned things on in recent weeks to put themselves firmly into the playoff race.
The Brewers have lost several position players in recent days, as shortstop Cooper Pratt hit the IL on Sunday with a hamstring strain and Joey Ortiz is considered day-to-day with neck tightness. The team also lost prospect Jett Williams, who, in his first at-bat back from injury, re-injured his hand while swinging. Outfielder Sal Frelick is also out, though he's on his way back as he began a rehab ***** ignment over the weekend. Pitchers Joel Kuhnel (on rehab), JoJo Romero (mid- to late August), Rob Zastryzny (TBD), Brandon Woodruff (out for season), Brian Fitzpatrick (out for season), Quinn Priester (out for season), and Angel Zerpa (out for season) are all on the IL.
San Diego's injured list currently includes pitchers Joe Musgrove (on rehab), Nick Pivetta (exited rehab outing last week), David Morgan (on rehab), Jason Adam (late August or early September), Lucas Giolito (late August), Bryan Hoeing (out for season), and Yu Darvish (considering retirement). Outfielders Ramón Laureano (likely out for season) and Samad Taylor (close to a rehab ***** ignment) are also out, as well as utility man Miguel Andujar (late August).
Jake Bauers leads Milwaukee with 21 homers, though Jackson Chourio's four-homer week has him closing in with 21 on the season. Brice Turang, William Contreras, Garrett Mitchell, Andrew Vaughn, Christian Yelich, Ortiz, Luis Lara, and David Hamilton round out the regulars, with Brandon Lockridge, Gary Sánchez, and new addition Jihwan Bae serving as depth. As a team, the Brewers are hitting .253/.337/.398 (.735 OPS ranks seventh), with 109 homers (last), 585 runs (fifth), and 117 steals (fourth).
Despite an ice-cold start offensively, the Padres have turned it around a bit offensively in recent weeks. Manny Machado, who's hitting just .212 for the year, leads the team with 23 homers, good for a .420 slugging percentage. He's followed by Jackson Merrill (18 homers), Ty France (16 homers), Gavin Sheets (15 homers), and Fernando Tatis Jr. (11 homers). Xander Bogaerts, Luis Campusano, Freddy Fermin, Jake Cronenworth, recent former Brewer Luis Rengifo round out the regulars, with Austin Hays, Jase Bowen, and Sung-Mun Song, providing depth. As a team, the Padres are hitting .236/.313/.382 (.695 OPS ranks 25th), with 124 homers (20th), 497 runs (22nd), and 119 steals (third).

The Georgia Bulldogs are pretty healthy entering the start of fall camp. Georgia is preparing for its season open on Sept. 5 against Tennessee State.
Entering fall camp, Georgia head coach Kirby Smart was excited about how healthy the Bulldogs are. Georgia still has some starters that are limited after missing the spring, but the Bulldogs don't appear to have many recent injuries. Of course, that could all change over the course of fall camp.
"We're in a really healthy state," Smart said. "I feel like we've got a lot of guys that can practice."
Georgia is most notably without Auburn transfer defensive lineman Amaris Williams after he suffered a torn ACL in the spring. Williams is not the only Georgia player recovering from an ACL injury. Freshman cornerback Justice Fitzpatrick also suffered an ACL injury in December.
Kentucky running back transfer Dante Dowdell is the only other Georgia player that is expected to miss extended time. Dowdell was involved in an offseason ATV accident.
