Re: 100% Stocks

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'm getting a bit over $50K from two small Fortune 500 pensions from jobs I left in the 80's and 90's, plus SS -- and I quit working in 1994 at age 38.

Yeah, my wife worked for a Fortune 500 for 15 years before becoming a stay-at-home mom. She'll get a pretty nice pension from them. That, plus her and my SS will be quite a bit more than $50k. Might just pay for our healthcare!
