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.

But it's not *that* far off topic. Berkshire has a large occidental investment. Last I read, Occidental's carbon capture method also allowed it to extract additional gas from the ground.

Thanks to this board, I knew to look for the Occidental warrants. You get to borrow $22 of the purchase price, they don't expire until 2027, get adjusted for any special dividends, and trade at almost no premium to the stock. The only thing you miss out on is the regular dividend yield, so you can think of that as your borrowing cost.
