The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I made a shitload of money doing legal and spectacular things -- I'd say oh, a 3000% return +. And that doesn't even include income.

I did *some* stuff that *some* might find a bit....questionable - to deprive you mooch-asses a bite of what's mine.

But now I take from you for 5 years now.


Is it far enough in the past to not worry about it now?

I did *some* stuff that *some* might find a bit....questionable - to deprive you mooch-asses a bite of what's mine.

You see this makes no sense to me. Some how you feel you got taken advantage of by people who were asking you for money? And by using the word "you" you are somehow including me in with those people who took advantage of you? Sounds like you probably structured something so as to not pay taxes or qualify for social security and are resentful and think you are taking from me now? You are using the word "you" again.

Well, I'm not resentful. I'm not mooching from anybody. No one mooched off of me. (Well, one person did. :) ) I don't resent you being able to provide for yourself in your old age, and what I wish for you is to have no resentments. To be free of them, and take care of you and yours. Merry Christmas!
