Here's How Much $1000 Invested In Union Pacific 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

Warren Buffett has worn the title of "richest man in the world." He's built one of the most powerful holding companies in history. And he's spent decades casually throwing around billion-dollar deals like most people swipe for lattes.
Yet, in his own words, he doesn't need the money.
In 2021, in a statement titled "Comments by Warren E. Buffett in Conjunction with His Annual Contribution of Berkshire Hathaway Shares to Five Foundations," Buffett wrote:
"Over many decades I have accumulated an almost incomprehensible sum simply by doing what I love to do… Society has a use for my money; I don't."

</ul>
<a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/warren-buffett/">According to Forbes</a>, he's donated roughly $62 billion since 2006—part of his long-standing pledge to give away more than 99% of his wealth. Unlike many billionaires who cling to their fortunes or spend it on jets, islands, or ego projects, Buffett's message has been the same: he doesn't need it, he doesn't want it, and he's more than happy to let society put it to better use.
Buffett has made it clear—again and again—that money holds no personal appeal. In a <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2016-11-02/warren-buffett-money-has-no-utility-to-me-time-does">2016 interview on "The David Rubenstein Show"</a>, he said, "Money in terms of making trips or owning more houses or having a boat or something — it has no utility to me whatsoever."&nbsp;

Although in 2021—when he made the statement about accumulating "an almost incomprehensible sum"—his plan was to give his fortune to five foundations, that's since changed.&nbsp;
In 2025, Buffett revised his estate plan: the remaining $130 billion will instead be transferred to a charitable trust overseen by his three children—Susan, Howard, and Peter. All decisions about how the money is distributed must be made unanimously, a structure Buffett believes will lead to careful, collaborative giving.
Buffett calls his brand of giving "painless," because he's not giving up anything he personally needs. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45240439/ive-made-no-sacrifice-warren-buffett-has-given-away-60-billion-but-says-giving-time-is-more-admirable-ive-done-little-of-that">"I've made no sacrifice,"</a> he said. And he means it. His joy doesn't come from spending—it comes from doing what he loves: investing, building, buying, and reading company reports for fun.

Media network CBS has dominated the prime time ratings for more than a decade and helped boost the financials for Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>) and subscribers for the company's<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/streaming"> Paramount+ streaming platform.</a>
With concerns over a pending merger and pressure from President Donald Trump, could TV success offset a declining stock price?
What Happened: Paramount Global has a pending merger with Skydance Media. The merger has faced regulatory pressure and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44793888/trump-attacks-60-minutes-for-unlawful-and-illegal-behavior-could-president-derail-merger"> fight from Trump</a> to take away CBS's FCC broadcast license over past "60 Minutes" episodes could keep the stock from breaking out.
Paramount's CBS Television segment could be a bright spot and shows no signs of slowing down.
As reported by <a href="https://variety.com/2025/biz/news/cbs-upfront-victory-lap-matlock-cheeks-reisenbach-1236393491/">Variety</a>, CBS chose to release its 2025-26 season schedule ahead of media company upfronts, which is when they show off their lineups and new content to advertisers.
Likely helping CBS's decision were several victory laps taken by George Cheeks and Amy Reisenbach over the network's streak of 17 consecutive years as the most-watched network. CBS also has eight of the top 10 most-watched series on television and 16 of the top 25 based on Nielsen data.
CBS has newer hit shows that include "Tracker" and "Matlock." These hit shows and originals have provided a boost to Paramount+, where CBS programs get around half of the total viewing on the platform, according to the report.
"The bottom line here is, our broadcast hits are becoming instant streaming hits," Cheeks said.
Producer Taylor Sheridan has spawned several hits for CBS, including the "Yellowstone" franchise and has more series in the works for CBS, adding more excitement to the company's lineup of returning programs.
"We made some very strategic scheduling moves that will reinforce the schedule that clinched us our 17 seasons at the most-watched network. This is a lineup that's going to be cohesive and has flow with compatible programming each night and throughout the week, and provides strong launch pads for all of our new series," Reisenbach added.

Why It's Important: The success of the television segment and a look ahead at what's to come comes as Trump has put pressure on CBS and "60 Minutes," an item that could delay or end the company's merger hopes with Skydance Media.
"This is a disruptive and challenging time for our industry," Cheeks said at the recent event, choosing not to answer questions outside of CBS programming.
"We have to focus on what we control, which is building an amazing schedule."
With the merger in limbo, shareholders face the decision of sticking things out for the combined company or the realization that a merger not going through could send shares lower and force the company to show valuation from the CBS assets on its own.
Paramount <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/05/45358172/paramounts-super-bowl-boost-and-studio-strength-help-offset-streaming-miss-analyst">reported first-quarter</a> revenue of $7.19 billion, beating Street consensus estimates. The company's television segment had revenue of $4.54 billion, beating estimates, while direct-to-consumer revenue of $2.04 billion came in shy of estimates from analysts.
The company's guidance suggests streaming could face tough comps going forward, putting more pressure on the television segment to continue to perform well and be the top-ranked network for the 19th straight year.
PARA Price Action: Paramount stock closed at $11.95 on Monday versus a 52-week trading range of $9.54 to $13.40. Paramount stock is up 13% year-to-date, with shares down 8% over the last year.

Hertz Global Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>) reported financial results for the first quarter after the market close on Monday. Here&#8217;s a rundown <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45362896/hertz-reports-significant-progress-towards-key-milestones-for-first-quarter-2025">of the report</a>.
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Q1 Revenue: $1.81 billion, versus <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/htz/earnings">estimates</a> of $2 billion</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Q1 Adjusted Loss: $1.12, versus estimates of 97 cents</li>
</ul>
Total revenue declined 13% on a year-over-year basis, primarily driven by reduced fleet capacity, which was down 8% year-over-year. The company said its fleet rotation is delivering results, with vehicle depreciation down 45% year-over-year. 
Hertz said it&#8217;s targeting less than $300 of depreciation per unit in the second quarter, with model year 2025 vehicles already achieving this target. The company noted that more than 70% of its core U.S. rental fleet is 12 months old or newer. 
Hertz ended the quarter with $1.2 billion of corporate liquidity and said it remains on track to achieve positive adjusted corporate EBITDA by the third quarter of 2025. 
&#8220;Given macro demand uncertainties, it is intentionally running a tighter fleet year-over-year while capitalizing on the strong residual value environment to accelerate the rotation of its remaining older vehicles,&#8221; the company said in the earnings release.
&#8220;Looking forward, the Company sees both macroeconomic uncertainty and opportunity. The Company has recently seen demand moderate for corporate, government and U.S. inbound segments while forward bookings for Hertz leisure are up year-over-year. The Company intends to remain prudent in its fleet management, entering the summer with a relatively tight fleet, and thereby leveraging rising residual values.&#8221;
Hertz executives will further discuss the quarter on a conference call with investors and analysts at 9 a.m. ET Tuesday morning.
HTZ Price Action:<a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/htz"> Hertz shares</a> were down 3.60% after hours, trading at $6.69 at the time of publication Monday, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Hertz shares surged last month after Bill Ackman's&nbsp;Pershing Square Capital Management reported a sizable stake in the company. Despite Monday&#8217;s after-hours decline, the stock is still up approximately 89% year-to-date.
