The "2Bs": Buffett. Basics.
The subprime mess gets nastier by the day. I've seen recent estimates of the fiscal damage alone exceeding $1 trillion. (Not enough pain to reduce Wall Street bonuses, mind you—a record $39 billion in performance-based handouts expected.)

Sean Combs Godzilla
In 1998, a film was released that would introduce Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs to a new audience of music listeners. Starring Matthew Broderick and Hank Azaria, “Godzilla” opened in theatres across America to mixed reviews. It was yet another remake of the classic Japanese film “Gojira”, but this time, there were a few twists, one of which was the film’s soundtrack featuring rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in a joint venture with the guitarist of famed English rock band Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page. For Sean Combs, Godzilla was his chance to show people he wasn’t just a one-genre musician; he could rock it out with the best of them.

From Shipping to Sports: Steinbrenner Makes His Move
Despite his entry in the world of sports, Steinbrenner remained loyal to his father’s company. In 1967, he oversaw the merger of Kinsman Shipping and the American Ship Building Company in a move that would firmly establish Steinbrenner’s place in the business world, and turn him into a multimillionaire overnight.
Lesson #1: You Have To Spend Money to Make Money
Steinbrenner may be one of the most famous faces behind the New York Yankees, but that is only because he has made it his mission to bring on board the best possible people to support him.

Lesson #2: A Company is More About the Culture You Create
“Owning the Yankees is like owning the Mona Lisa,” Steinbrenner once said.

Lesson #3: The Boss Can Come Back
If there is one thing Steinbrenner is famous for besides his ability to manage a great baseball team, it is his ability to get himself into trouble. From being banned from baseball for life to feuding with and changing managers 20 times, Steinbrenner is no stranger to controversy. But what is even more remarkable, is his ability to bounce back and reclaim the team he worked so hard to promote.

Lesson #4: Nice Guys Finish Last
“My father wasn’t a believer in ‘monetary allowances’ for my sisters and me, so he set us up raising chickens,” recalls Steinbrenner. “We sold the eggs to our neighbours…If one of our neighbours wanted a fresh chicken, then we also had to kill and dress the chicken.”

Lesson #5: Never Lose Sight of Your Fans
Reflecting on his tremendous success of the decades, Steinbrenner says, “It's an incredible achievement, particularly when I remember that when I bought the Yankees, we had trouble drawing 1 million to the stadium. We have the greatest fans in the world.”
Making the Big Leagues: How Steinbrenner Hit a Grand Slam
“I haven’t always done a good job, and I haven’t always been successful,” says Steinbrenner, “but I know that I have tried.”
