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.

Please Forgive me folks as this seems a bit random, but I wanted to relate the current 'Beanie Baby' of the annual meeting in Omaha by far was the former Alleghany sub and now BRK owned 'Jazwares' Their collection called 'Squishmallows' was superb. They had a couple dozen varieties including a couple varieties (and sizes) with WEB and CTM's faces on them (only available in person) which were spectacular and quite humorous! The purchase lines were over an hour for Adults to buy them!

Jazwares.com is the site for those interested. They have won many awards including prestigious 'Toy of the Year' They also have a nice Star Wars collection.

Regardless of its net income, it was just plain fun to see us own such a unique business, especially since I have younger kids. Trust me, Warren will receive a lot of fun feedback about Jazwares!
