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.

So I while I completely agree with Brian Lund I sure do worry about where all this is going with President Ludwig Von Mises at the helm!

Ken Fisher, going back at least the 30+ years I have been reading him, has *always* said to be agnostioc about politics in your investing.
I have made a lot of money and lost a lot of money both when my favorite party was in office and out of office. Luckily I internalized Fisher's stance long before our portfolio had 2 commas.

That said, we have been in a bull market 16 years. That's a very long bull market and statistically we are long overdue for a bear market/crash.


(Oh, man! If you think that Trump is a von Mises guy .... I don't know what to say.)
