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.

“ Capital Gain: The increase in value of your stock in a company. If you bought 1,000 shares of a company at $10 per share and the share price rose to $11, then your stock value would change from $10,000 to $11,000 with a Capital Gain of $1,000. Dividends are not accounted for as part of the capital gain.“ Good morning and thanks for sharing your work. I’m currently trying to teach my grandkids many important investing concepts, they live in Cali with high income parents. Please give some thought to changing this to paragraph to, unrealized cap gain of 1,000. They own stocks like brkb that just can’t be sold in Cali in a taxable account. Thank you.
