Well the cost is sort of hard to define. Its in Omaha, NE (which is annoying to get to from Calgary!). So theres the travel and lodgings etc while you're there. The actual cost to get in is free for shareholders and you just need a pass. I spent some money every year as there are deals through the businesses owned by Berkshire that weekend.
I got a huge amount out of it the first year and to be fair probably less in the second and third year. I guess the best way to explain that is going to the Stampede every year. The first year its all new and there is a lot to take in. By the third year its just not as new and while I still found it worthwhile and excellent for my professional reasons, its just not as impactful.
