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.

There were thousands of international attendees and often folks in their 20s or early 30s making the pilgrimage- so at least compared to the last two years, there definitely seem to be more of an international, younger crowd which I thought was interesting and adds hope given some young folks’ fascination with Crypto, Robinhood, day trading. Hope this trend continues. I still saw plenty of blue hairs and a couple fellas in overalls which put a smile on my face as well!</i?

ould you elaborate on your comment?

I understand there is a greater degree of respect given to the wisdom of age in the eastern hemisphere than we do in the west. And, to a similar degree for Europeans re Buffett and Munger. A greater focus on learning from the masters. This seemed to come through in the questions. More admiration, maybe less exposure to past Buffett and Munger teachings than us locals?

Not surprising. We.ve been listening maybe a lot longer than they have.

Your insights?
