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.

Hell, I even still take a paper newspaper and refuse to let my life be dominated by a smart phone. It took a long time and lots of pressure for Buffett to cave in

I refused a long time to even own a mobile phone. My aged father though loved his tiny Nokia. And was always amused when he wanted to know how to do this or that with his phone, me saying "Give it to me", fiddling around a bit and then me, the computer expert, returning it with "I have no idea". One day when visiting him he gave me a Nokia with the words "Son, you must have one". My father´s present, so I couldn´t reject it.

No matter how many times I proof-read, I alway mistype something.
You just did it again :) And I wrote in my last post "in my table club after practicing", leaving people wondering what a "table club" is (table tennis club).
