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.

" Last time I went to Las Vegas it was incredible how expensive it had all become. Back when I lived there in the early 90's we could get breakfast for 99 cents, basically drink all day for free (always tip your waitress), $1 hotdog for lunch, $1.99 steak and eggs for dinner. Last time I was there we had to pay to park!

It ain't cheap no more. Anyone living there and partying hard needs a steady stream of increasing income. Berkshire's stock price languishing at 1.57x book just don't do it."


Funny you bring that up. I have family and friends in town for the holidays. Eat where locals eat and don't pay super high prices plus free parking away from the strip, simple.

Thank you for your concern but it's the rent on my unfurnished double wide trailer that puts a cash strain on my monthly finances. Thanks for the laughs partner, and for generously sharing the brilliance of your thoughts!
