I am sure some of you have heard of Benjamin Graham.
"At only six years old, Buffett purchased 6-packs of Coca Cola from his grandfather's grocery store for twenty five cents and resold each of the bottles for a nickel, pocketing a five cent profit. While other children his age were playing hopscotch and jacks, Warren was making money. Five years later, Buffett took his step into the world of high finance. "

yes!
Looks like this guys whole life has been money, money, money. He seems to spend or give very little of it though.
Its also called being a CHEAPSKATE. Why would a multi billionaire who is worth more than (HUGH HEFNER+ DONALD TRUMP+ LARRY ELLISON ) combined lives in a house worth 900,000 ? Doesn't own a cell phone and drives his own second hand Buick Electra ?
Is he Jewish?
He is a cheapskate. He is living in a place where people can walk up knock on his door and shoo a gun in his face. That is really smart isn't it?
i still think its all a front for the shareholders/media/public. he's a crafty old dude for sure.

Maybe you should make him a little checklist of how specifically he should be spending *his* money. Do you also go tell your neighbors and friends how to spend their money and comment on it?
