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.

WTH -

Family and I were watching US Football last night (NFL) - Tampa Bay vs St. Louis Cardinals. Conversation got to talking about Tom Brady (and former wife Giselle) had purchased equity stakes in FTX last year and TB12 was an 'Ambassador' for investing in FTX. I completely forgot about this, but doing some research on it today, I recall that Tom and Giselle starred in TV commercials asking 'Did you get your Crypto yet?'.

I also read that someone else famous (I think Kim Kardashian?) was pumping some crypto and was recently sued due to recommending a financial investment offering without declaring her holdings in the investment which is against SEC rules.

I also read that Tom and Gisele are now parties in a class-action lawsuit over their 'ambassadorship' of FTX. Whoops. Been a bad year for old TB12.

Interesting world we live in!
