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.

It is, I agree, making a lot of people in Atlanta wealthier

And btw, the company has made the city a much 'richer' place, culturally speaking. And speaking of people, former CEOs Robert Woodruff, Robert Goizueta and Neville Isdell weren't too shabby either with their post-retirement contributions to the forever betterment of the populace.

I'm very pleased with my KO shares as part of my overall portfolio. Context matters, of course. It balances the loads of growth I have elsewhere, which have crushed any index for near decades now, so that context is key for me. Love the divs too... in absolute terms, they are signficant to my annual expenses. Given that, I don't care what it does relative to the S&P.
