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.

We are like 4 months away from a possible new world order, and I’m so unprepared.

Trump. Say the name :-)
He was good for business as soon as he got elected. AFAIK BRK went up 20% immediately.

Dictators are good for business. eg India and Modi (officially not a dictator). Deng Xiaoping and China. Etc.

If you are an old rich white guy you are golden no matter who comes to power.

If you are not white, first of all what were you thinking? But maybe it won't be so bad. I don't know, I am just burying my head in the sand and pretend everything will be fine.
