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.

"But its a mistake to say that someone on the board is forcing other people to think a certain way or to agree with all their assumptions."

You are being generous by saying it is a mistake. It isn't a mistake. It is an outright dishonest characterization of what another poster has said. You see he is unable to argue against what the other poster has actually said, so he will just dishonestly mischaracterize the arguments and argue against the mischaracterizations instead.

He is a bit jealous of the attention other posters get.

He forgot what Charlie Munger has said about jealousy being the worst of the 7 deadly sins because you get nothing out of it.
