Well, a significant portion of my equity portfolio is in BRK as back in the mid 1980s I bought a few shares, set it aside and forgot about it figuring Warren could do better with it than I could. I have not been disappointed. Over the years I also bought some stalwart standards and index funds and have held onto them. I see no reason to sell and pay taxes as most are in taxable accounts. What I have done is retain most of the proceeds received from recent real estate sales in cash, T-bills, money market funds and such. I see BRK taking a bit of a hit when Buffett bows out or checks out, so to speak, but I plan on holding onto it all as if I sold my LTCGs would be enormous.
