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.

" Yes. Some hubris too I think, in the case of Longleaf. I remember Staley Cates (of Longleaf) calling Berkshire a "mutual fund" once. He knew it wasn't a mutual fund, of course.

Really smart guys have trouble beating the index?

Have T and T beat the index?

Did Buffett win that million-dollar bet with the hedge funds?

How much brkb has Buffett bought since it was 410 in June 2024?

Market timing is a tuff game?

Who knew?
