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.

Updating this thread for future reference.

From the recent annual report, BRK shareholders' equity is $649,368,000,000 and equivalent Class A stock basis is 1,438,223 so the book value per A share is $451,507.17. This is also the new Peak Book value.

At a current price of $752,405 per A share, the current Price to Peak Book is 1.67, which is on the high side.

Calculating this for myself, reading mungo and others, and considering the potential for flat or negative returns in the near future from BRK, makes me consider selling some and doing something else with the money. But, I also am trying to be better about just holding the damn stock.
