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.

Jim, I bet that if you didn't so already before that today you can't resist to join me on the dark side of Berkshire = buying Puts.
A bottle of sparkling wine (not champagne, I am thrifty and risk averse :-) ?


Not going to take a bet I already know I'll lose : )
I did in fact buy some today, but at a level that is purely play money for entertainment.

Besides, I'm not that fond of champagne. More of a red burgundy man these days. I just had a nice glass of my favourite Beaune Les Marconnets.
An underpriced one, of course--I'm a value investor, after all.

Jim
