What Readers Think

Oprah

It was a tossup between Warren Buffett and Oprah, but since I’m a subscriber to her magazine, I had to go with Oprah. My reasons for wanting to have lunch with either of them: their incredible wisdom, their generosity with their time and talents and the spheres of influence they impart to all around them.

—Jan A. Robbins, Mid-Missouri Mortgage Co.

What about Michael Bloomberg!? His credentials are very impressive in the business, financial, media, technology, philanthropic and political arenas. If I can’t have lunch with him, I’ll at least take a close look at him as an independent presidential candidate. I wonder how Congress would take to realigning itself under the terms of the matrix organizational structure in place at Bloomberg LP?

—Jan House, BKD LLP

Would you accept a departed businessman? I’d love to have lunch with Ben Franklin. He should be a role model for all businesspeople.

—Lori Tack, Ozark Greenways
