I’m now 80% or more, all in with BRK, with the rest in cash. [...] Admittedly, I have a very basic portfolio, bordering on sloth and inactivity, void of options and other sophisticated trading strategies, with an asset allocation that might resemble Boglehead simplicity.

I was reading a thread about Berkshire on the Boglehead forum. It's amusing how much they shun Berkshire. "Uhh, single stock risk?! No way. That's so dumb."

There was a poster saying they'd consider a 5% Berkshire allocation with play money. Maybe even 7%, because it was Berkshire. That got a chuckle out of me. That Berkshire gets a whole extra 2%.
