BRK.B........warren buffett....have owned the stock an luckily sold it before this latest downturn....warren is second richest man in the USA but quickly losing ground to bill gates an others cause imo he refuses to change while the rest of the world is....holds LARGE holdings in insurance(really out of favor an hitting all time lows)...COCA COLA(high pe stock but old world business..worst of both)...AXP(getting hit with interest rate worries...i sold this last year at 140 an now it is 126).....SEE'S candies....shoe company....FOSTERS FREEZE...etc......YAHOO has the most stocktalk on the company...look up BRKA OR BRK.A.....THIS IS the same stock but sells for a multple of 30 times BRK.B....yes i agree that you should be greatful for getting it as a gift...but also that does not mean that you shouldn't analysis the stock an its potential today....always a very difficult decision....it could be at its lows an make a rebound or it could steadily decline....the decision we all have to make everyday....buy or sell...ask yourself if this is where i want my money today if i was to make an investment today....will my money be best put to work here or somewhere else today....annual stockholders meeting is sometime in may i believe an traditionally price has risen but tradition may be broken....BRK.B...is like a mutual fund run by warren buffet....holds many stocks some of which brk.b owns wholly....stock price sells at a premium to its holdings because of buffet's fame....he is getting old an one more thing to consider is what will happen to the stock price if anything should happen to warren(who is supposedly in good health but)

who like all of us is only human....good luck....tough decision...................redwood
