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.

Please do not write any more posts on this thread that do not relate to the original post about XOM.

There have been numerous condescending posts which are not acceptable here. Please show respect to everyone.

Peer review and consensus works well with science, but it has horrible results with political views.

Humans do (or give consent to doing) incredibly awful things in crowds (which can be small, or include entire nations) throughout history. The crowd you are in isn't necessary as virtuous as you think.

There some very intelligent people here, some extremely intelligent. These same authors may have different word views to yourself, and these world models may be naive, whilst expressed with great confidence.

But do not allow that to put you off with engaging with the same authors on topics related to value investing, which is the domain that unites authors on this board.
