I have BerkShares in my wallet/cash register/safe. Are they worth less now?
No! BerkShares still have the same purchasing power they had before the change. One BerkShare still equals one federal dollar. If you find yourself in the position of needing to change the BerkShares in your wallet or your cash register back into federal dollars, you will now receive 95 cents per BerkShare, which is 5 cents more than you would have received under the previous exchange rate.
