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've been interested in markets and investing for decades so I'm in the "old" people category for sure. A super helpful thing to get one's head around and study is what phase of life one is in and its relationship to dollar cost averaging when investing and sequence of returns when withdrawing from your investments. If one is buttressed by a a good pension then the latter doesn't matter as much, but it still matters if one is withdrawing for any reason.

Agree on Bogleheads...my favorite is a first line that goes something like...I have $25M from my tech job founders shares I cashed out and I'm afraid of running out of money. What should I do?
