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 chalk that up to being an old man with likely lifelong ADHD on a cell phone in the yard assuming the whole reason for Berkshire approaching me about converting our A shares was it involved a premium. In fact, I did ask what the reason was to my broker and he said this was an offer by Berkshire for the A shares and I asked if there was a premium and he said "some premium" . In this case, my long-time friend and broker had not done his homework and was likely also just following up on a prompt from HQ to let me know the so called window (a window only in the RJ network it seems) was ending today."


To be VERY CLEAR, I spoke to Berkshire today, the company, brk, is NOT involved in this offer IN ANY WAY. period.


Comprende amigo?

Find another broker IF IF he really told you this.

Thank you.
