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.

'I sucked my thumb but could have easily lightened up in my IRA'

Curious, if you had 20/20 hindsight that that time was a relative peak and lightened up (and did Not truly need the funds but were just being prudent), what % trim would you have considered-5/10/15%? I ask as we have never sold a share but it will be necessary in the next couple years as we are now living off cash and investments. I am leaning towards 5% unless there is a highly unlikely melt up. Thanks!
