Nice to see some BRK board regulars here.

I assumed the reason there was little talk about BRK here was because everyone knew about it and was invested in it.

I have something like 85% of net worth in BRK and am always looking for other options but nothing much measures up. I keep a chunk in QQQE and have watched Markel do very average once it ramped up from the low price I got in at.

I'm looking (like everyone else) for anything that will beat the S&P index and is safer. It seems the S&P index has been "too high" for a long time.

I'm currently shoring up the fixed income end of my portfolio with laddered Treasuries.

All thoughts welcomed.

A wave to Tex and Goofy, two posters I've been reading for decades now and have nothing but the highest respect for. When they post, listen!
