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.

"Been feeling pretty good about the stock price lately.
I am going to be a net seller going forward, so a high price is good for me."

------------------

I have similar feelings at pleasant times like this however 2 things always come to mind.......

first......sending an April check to Washington & Sacramento for ~ 33% of the proceeds!
second.....making sure my medicine cabinet has a full supply of Zantac & Nytol knowing I am making future $$ decisions instead of Omaha.

As mentioned in a prev post, giving up a small % for the decisions to remain at HQ is well worth the price for me.

As per the current YTD,1,3,5,10,15,20 yr relative comparisons of BRK & SPY,
they are, +5.5%, -4.7%, +3.1%, -0.1%, -0.3%, -1.1%, & -0.1%
The last few numbers are well within the -1 to -2% that I accept for a good nights sleep when things invariably hit the fan!

ciao
