Hi, listeners.
It's Michaela.
Before we get into this week's show, I want to share some important news.
Next week will be Behind the Money's final episode.
Every week for almost four years now, I 've had the opportunity to bring the best-in-class corporate and financial reporting
from my FT colleagues to your ears.
And it has been an absolute privilege and a highlight of my career thus far to do that.
I hope you've enjoyed listening as much as I've enjoyed making this show.
I'll say a little more on all this next week.
But until then, on to this week's episode.
And thank you for listening.
My colleague Eric Platt has covered a range of topics at the FT, from asset management to M&A.
And right now, he's our U.S. Investment editor.
And in that role, he tells me that the bulk of what he reports on is n't often the topic of conversation when he 's,
say, out with friends.
I cover Berkshire Hathaway.
People are normally really curious how Warren is doing.
They're never asking me what's happening at Apollo or Aries or KKR.
They're never asking me about private credit returns and whether software loans are going to go bad.
But recently, the people in his life seem to keep bringing up the same topic.
