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.

" Do you realize how small pacemakers are? About the size of a 50 cent coin, maybe a little thicker but not much thicker. The whole thing is smaller than the battery in a cell phone.

People who need a pacemaker REALLY NEED that pacemaker. When it shuts off, like turning off to run a self-test, your heart rate drops back as low as when you had to get it in the first place.

My wife had to get her cardiologist to disable her pacemaker's daily self test, because when it went into selftest at 9PM she didn't have enough energy to stand up.

The batteries in these things are magical. Maintaining power for 10+ years. Amazing. I wish my phone battery would hold up for even 10 days."


This is your post and you suggest a post about wealth and taxes in America is off topic, lol. Google who Warren Buffett is. bye bye.
