Subject: up enough
BRK stock price has more than doubled in five years.

There’s a lot of discussion here about maximizing returns through options but you can make a bundle with doubling in five years if you own enough stock. A long time ago I decided to maximize buying to get big real returns.

I’m not innocent when it comes to leverage. I hold mortgages in order to buy more stocks, most recently via 30 year fixed at 2.875%. I consider debt to be a part of my portfolio. It’s a small part and shrinking due to inflation and investment returns.

So I don’t feel bad if someone has higher returns because I own plenty and I’m up enough.
