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.

There's nothing wrong with being conservative with money. In the investing equation, sleeping well is very important.

Nothing wrong at all. In fact, like writing up posts, having to explain why I want to invest in a certain way and reach a consensus with DH, is a great way to make sure I fully understand what I am doing. We often come at things from a different perspective, and IMO that's synergistic, with the sum of the parts being being greater than the individual components. One must also consider non-monetary stressors on investing. I have no desire to shorten his life by piling on stress.

IP,
whose most important investment has been the decades with DH
