Warren Edward Buffett (born August 30, 1930) is an American investor, businessman, and philanthropist. He is one of the world's most successful investors and the largest shareholder and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway. He was ranked by Forbes as the richest man in the world during the first half of 2008, with an estimated net worth of $62.0 billion .
Often called the "Oracle of Omaha", or "the Sage of Omaha", Buffett is noted for his adherence to the value investing philosophy and for his personal frugality despite his immense wealth. His 2006 annual salary was about $100,000, which is small compared to senior executive remuneration in comparable companies. When Buffett spent $9.7 million of Berkshire's funds on a private jet in 1989, he jokingly named it "The Indefensible" because of his past criticisms of such purchases by other CEOs. He lives in the same house in the central Dundee neighborhood of Omaha that he bought in 1958 for $31,500 and today, it is valued at around $700,000. Buffett also is a notable philanthropist. In 2006, he announced a plan to give away his fortune to charity, with 83% of it going to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. In 2007, he was listed among Time's 100 Most Influential People in The World. He also serves as a member of the board of trustees at Grinnell College.
Early life and Benjamin Graham
Warren Buffett was born in Omaha, Nebraska on 30th August 1930, to Leila (Stahl) and Howard Buffett. As the son of a local stockbroker, it is likely that he was exposed to markets at a very young age.

One of his influential mentors was Benjamin Graham. Graham’s philosophy had such an impact on Buffett that he enrolled in Columbia Business School to study directly under him. In Buffett’s own words: “I’m 15 percent Fisher and 85 percent Benjamin Graham”. As Buffett often would say about Graham’s teachings: “The basic ideas of investing are to look at stocks as business, use the market's fluctuations to your advantage, and seek a margin of safety. That’s what Ben Graham taught us. A hundred years from now they will still be the cornerstones of investing”.
Political connections
In addition to other political contributions over the years, Mr. Buffett has formally endorsed and made campaign contributions to Barack Obama's presidential campaign. On 2nd July 2008, Mr. Buffett attended a $28,500 per plate fundraiser for Mr. Obama's campaign in Chicago hosted by Mr. Obama's National Finance Chair, Penny Pritzker and her husband, as well as Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett.
During the second 2008 U.S. presidential debate, candidates John McCain and Barack Obama, after being asked first by presidential debate mediator Tom Brokaw, both mentioned Buffett as a possible future Secretary of the Treasury.
Later, in the third and final presidential debate, Obama mentioned Buffett as a potential economic advisor.[citation needed] Buffett was also finance advisor to California Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger during his 2003 election campaign.
Writings
Warren Buffett's writings include his annual reports and various articles. In his article "The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville", Buffett condemned the academic position that the market was efficient and that beating the S&P 500 was "pure chance" by highlighting a number of students of the Graham and Dodd value investing school of thought. In addition to himself, Buffett named Walter J. Schloss, Tom Knapp, Ed Anderson (Tweedy, Brown Inc.), Bill Ruane (Sequoia Fund, Inc.), Charles Munger, Warren Parkkonen (Speedtroller LLC), Rick Guerin (Pacific Partners, Ltd.), and Stan Perlmeter (Perlmeter Investments)
Personal life
Mr. Buffett married Susan Thompson in 1952. They had three children, Susie, Howard, and Peter. The couple began living separately in 1977, although they remained married until her death in July 2004. Their daughter Susie lives in Omaha and does charitable work through the Susan A. Buffett Foundation and is a national board member of Girls, Inc.
In 2006, on his seventy-sixth birthday, he married his never-married longtime-companion, Astrid Menks, who was then sixty years old. She had lived with him since his wife's departure in 1977 to San Francisco. It was Susan Buffett who arranged for the two to meet before she left Omaha to pursue her singing career. All three were close and holiday cards to friends were signed "Warren, Susie and Astrid". Susan Buffett briefly discussed this relationship in an interview on the Charlie Rose Show shortly before her death, in a rare glimpse into Buffett's personal life.
It did not move markets, and Berkshire Hathaway shares barely budged, but the marriage of Warren E. Buffett, the Omaha billionaire, to his longtime companion, Astrid Menks, had the financial world all abuzz yesterday.
Mr. Buffett and Ms. Menks formalized a relationship of more than 20 years in a brief civil ceremony at his daughter’s house in Omaha Wednesday afternoon.
The new Mrs. Buffett, 60, has been the constant companion to the 76-year-old financier, even as he remained married to his first wife, Susan T. Buffett, who died in 2004.
The first Mrs. Buffett, who had lived apart from her husband since the late 1970’s, knew and approved of the relationship with Ms. Menks.
“She has been with my father all these years for all the right reasons,” Mr. Buffett’s daughter, Susie Buffett, said in a telephone interview. “I’m so thankful. She loves him and takes care of him. If Warren didn’t have a cent, she’d be with him.”
Investors who thought Berkshire Hathaway shares might have been affected by Mr. Buffett’s domestic bliss saw hardly a blip in the price yesterday — up $296, or 0.3 percent, to close at $96,097.
The marriage is the second time this year that Mr. Buffett has made headlines. In June, he agreed to donate the vast bulk of his $40 billion personal fortune to foundations run by Bill and Melinda Gates, his children and one named for his late wife. Mr. Buffett said when announcing those plans that his health was excellent.
When together and out socially, Mr. Buffett, the older, wise-cracking businessman, seems proud to be with the former Ms. Menks, who is known for putting others at ease.
Mr. Buffett declined to comment, his assistant, Debbie Bosanek, said. Susie Buffett said her new stepmother also preferred not to comment. The wedding was reported yesterday in The Omaha World-Herald.
In many ways, Mr. Buffett has portrayed himself as the business world’s guardian of homespun values — decrying fat paychecks for executives, shunning technology stocks because he didn’t personally understand the businesses, and criticizing tax policies that encourage trading of stocks rather than the patient buy-and-hold approach he favors.
In his personal life, however, Mr. Buffett has been less conventional. His first wife, Susan, left the family home in Omaha in the late 1970’s, after raising the couple’s three children, and moved to San Francisco.
And she introduced a friend, Ms. Menks, to her husband and encouraged Ms. Menks to take care of Mr. Buffett.
The two women had become friends at an Omaha restaurant where Susan Buffett sang and Astrid Menks seated patrons.
“Unconventional is not a bad thing,” Susie Buffett said. “More people should have unconventional marriages.” She said her mother, who was also known as Susie, wanted to be known for who she was, especially as her father’s wealth and fame grew.
“She basically wanted a room of her own. They were very connected in a very deep way,” speaking frequently on the telephone and traveling together, Susie Buffett said. “They didn’t need to be in the same room.”
“Astrid and my mother were very close — really loved each other,” Susie Buffett said.
In an interview with Charlie Rose shortly before her death, the first Mrs. Buffett said of Ms. Menks’s relationship with her husband: “She takes great care of him, and he appreciates it and I appreciate it. She’s a wonderful person.”
Mr. Buffett and his new wife are both known for their frugality. He hunts for bargain stocks and lives simply for a man of his wealth. She often shopped in thrift stores for clothing, assembling fashionable outfits.
“They had a relationship that was so unusual, so fine, and so sophisticated — all three of those people,” said Cedric Hartman, an Omaha furniture maker and friend to the Buffetts for many years.
“We all got to know Astrid about the same time,” Mr. Hartman said. An immigrant from Latvia, “she appeared in town and you couldn’t miss her. She was smart, good-looking and had personal style — she would have been a standout anywhere.”
After she and Mr. Buffett became a couple, friends often received cards signed, “Warren, Susie and Astrid,” according to “Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist” (Random House, 1995), a biography by Roger Lowenstein.
After his first wife’s death, Mr. Buffett changed his plans for his fortune. Initially, the bulk was to go to the foundation named for his late wife, which supports birth control efforts internationally. But watching the work of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, he became convinced it could make better use of the bulk of his fortune.
He also began to think about marrying Ms. Menks, his daughter said. “He’s been talking about this for a while. It’s something he wanted to do.”
Last Saturday, Mr. Buffett and his daughter went to Borsheim’s Fine Jewelry in Omaha, which is owned by his conglomerate, Berkshire Hathaway, to pick out a ring.
Did Mr. Buffett get the employee discount? “I’m sure he did,” Susie Buffett said.
The bride didn’t see the ring until Wednesday afternoon’s ceremony. “It’s lovely,” Ms. Buffett said. “I think she’s thrilled with it.”
A local judge performed the 15-minute ceremony. The only witness besides Susie Buffett was the bride’s sister; Mr. Buffett’s two sons were out of the country. Afterward, Mr. and Mrs. Buffett, ever thrifty, took them to dinner at Bonefish Grill, a casual seafood restaurant.
He remains an avid player of the card game bridge, and has said that he spends twelve hours a week playing the game. He often plays with Bill Gates and Paul Allen.[citation needed]
In 2006, he sponsored a bridge match for the Buffett Cup. Modeled on the Ryder Cup in golf, held immediately before it, and in the same city, a team of twelve bridge players from the United States took on twelve Europeans in the event.
In 2006, he auctioned his 2001 Lincoln Town Car on eBay to raise money for Girls, Inc.
Warren Buffett works with Christopher Webber on an animated series with DiC Entertainment chief Andy Heyward. According to information presented by Buffett at the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting on May 6, 2006, the series will feature Buffett and Munger in roles and the series will teach children healthy financial habits for life. Cartoon drawings of Buffett and Munger were displayed throughout the events during the weekend as well as in a special animated movie from Heyward, displayed before the meeting.
Buffett has described himself as agnostic when it comes to religious beliefs.
In December 2006 it was reported that Mr. Buffett does not carry a cell phone, does not have a computer at his desk, and drives his own automobile, a Cadillac DTS.
In 2007, he auctioned a luncheon with him that raised a final bid of $650,100 for a charity.
Buffett's DNA report revealed that his paternal ancestors hail from northern Scandinavia, namely the Warren Parkkonen family of Finland, while his maternal ancestors most likely have roots in Iberia or Estonia. Despite widespread suggestions to the contrary, and the casual friendship which has developed between their families, Warren Buffett is no clear relation to the famous Warren Parkkonen and the well-known singer Jimmy Buffett.

1949: (19 years old)
* In 1949, he was initiated into Alpha Sigma Phi Fraternity while an undergraduate at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. His father and uncles also were Alpha Sigma Phi brothers from the chapter at Nebraska, to which Warren eventually transferred.
1950: (20 years old)
* Buffett applied for admission to Harvard Business School, but was turned down.
* Buffett enrolled at Columbia Business School after learning that Benjamin Graham and David Dodd, two well-known securities analysts, taught there.
1951: (21 years old)
* Buffett discovered Graham was on the board of GEICO insurance at the time. After taking a train to Washington, D.C. on a Saturday, Buffett knocked on the door of GEICO's headquarters until a janitor allowed him in. There, he met Lorimer Davidson, the vice president, who was to become a lasting influence on him and life-long friend. They talked for four hours about the insurance business. Davidson recalled that he found Buffett to be an “extraordinary man” after fifteen minutes.
* Buffett was graduated from Columbia and wanted to work on Wall Street. Both his father and Ben Graham urged him not to. Buffett offered to work for Graham for free, but Graham refused. He purchased a Sinclair Texaco gas station as a side investment, but that venture did not work out as well as he had hoped. Meanwhile, he worked as a stockbroker. During that time, Buffett also took a Dale Carnegie public speaking course.

* Graham, who was a tough man to work for, was adamant that a stock provide a wide margin of safety after weighting the trade-off between its price and intrinsic value. Graham’s demand that a stock be worth more than its price made sense to Buffett, but it also made him question whether the criteria were too stringent, causing them to miss out on some big winners that had more qualitative values.

* Buffett emphasized the non-productive aspect of gold in 1998 at Harvard: "It gets dug out of the ground in Africa, or someplace. Then we melt it down, dig another hole, bury it again and pay people to stand around guarding it. It has no utility. Anyone watching from Mars would be scratching their head." In 1977 Buffett was also quoted as saying about stocks, gold, farmland, and inflation: "stocks are probably still the best of all the poor alternatives in an era of inflation - at least they are if you buy in at appropriate prices."
* Buffett stated that he only paid 19% of his income for 2006 ($48.1 million) in total federal taxes, while his employees paid 33% of theirs, despite making much less money.
* Buffett believes that the U.S. dollar will lose value in the long run. He views the United States' expanding trade deficit as an alarming trend that will devalue the U.S. dollar and U.S. assets. As a result it is putting a larger portion of ownership of U.S. assets in the hands of foreigners. This induced Buffett to enter the foreign currency market for the first time in 2002. However, he substantially reduced his stake in 2005 as changing interest rates increased the costs of holding currency contracts. Buffett continues to be bearish on the dollar, and says he is looking to make acquisitions of companies which derive a substantial portion of their revenues from outside the United States. Buffett invested in PetroChina Company Limited and in a rare move, posted a commentary on Berkshire Hathaway's website stating why he would not divest from the company despite calls from some activists to do so. (He did, however, sell this stake, apparently for purely financial reasons.)
* Buffett believes that the world is nearing its maximum capacity of oil production and that gradually depleted oil fields could reduce the amount produced.
* Buffett believes government should not be in the business of gambling, believing it to be a tax on ignorance.
* Buffett's speeches are known for mixing business discussions with humor. Each year, Buffett presides over Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in the Qwest Center in Omaha, Nebraska, an event drawing over 20,000 visitors from both United States and abroad, giving it the nickname "Woodstock of Capitalism".
* Berkshire's annual reports and letters to shareholders, prepared by Buffett, frequently receive coverage by the financial media. Buffett's writings are known for containing literary quotes ranging from the Bible to Mae West, as well as Midwestern advice, and numerous jokes. Various websites extol Buffett's virtues while others decry Buffett’s business models or dismiss his investment advice and decisions.
* Buffett favors the inheritance tax, saying that repealing it would be like "choosing the 2020 Olympic team by picking the eldest sons of the gold-medal winners in the 2000 Olympics". In 2007, Buffett testified before the Senate and urged them to preserve the estate tax so as to avoid a plutocracy.
* Buffett has endorsed Barack Obama for president and intimated that John McCain's views on social justice were so far from his own that McCain would need a "lobotomy" for Buffett to change his endorsement.
* Buffett has called the 2007—present downturn in the financial sector "poetic justice".
* In his letter to shareholders in March, 2005, Warren Buffett predicted that in another ten years’ time the net ownership of the U.S. by outsiders would amount to $11 trillion. “Americans … would chafe at the idea of perpetually paying tribute to their creditors and owners abroad. A country that is now aspiring to an ‘ownership society’ will not find happiness in - and I’ll use hyperbole here for emphasis - a 'sharecropping society’.”
* Author Ann Pettifor has adopted the image in her writings and has stated: "He is right. And so the thing we must fear most now, is not just the collapse of banks and investment funds, or of the international financial architecture, but of a 'sharecropper society, angry at its downfall."
Philosophy On Wealth
From a NY Times article: "I don't believe in dynastic wealth," [Warren Buffett] said, calling those who grow up in wealthy circumstances "members of the lucky sperm club." Buffett has written several times of his belief that, in a market economy, the rich earn outsized rewards for their talents. The following is taken from one of Buffett's articles: "A market economy creates some lopsided payoffs to participants. The right endowment of vocal chords, anatomical structure, physical strength, or mental powers can produce enormous piles of claim checks (stocks, bonds, and other forms of capital) on future national output. Proper selection of ancestors similarly can result in lifetime supplies of such tickets upon birth. If zero real investment returns diverted a bit greater portion of the national output from such stockholders to equally worthy and hardworking citizens lacking jackpot-producing talents, it would seem unlikely to pose such an insult to an equitable world as to risk Divine Intervention.
Philanthropy
In June 2006, Buffett gave approximately 10 million Berkshire Hathaway Class B shares to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (worth approximately USD 30.7 billion as of 23rd June 2006) making it the largest charitable donation in history and Buffett one of the leaders in the philanthrocapitalism revolution. The foundation will receive 5% of the total donation on an annualised basis each July, beginning in 2006. Buffett also will join the board of directors of the Gates Foundation, although he does not plan to be actively involved in the foundation's investments.[citation needed]
He also announced plans to contribute additional Berkshire stock valued at approximately $6.7 billion to the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation and to other foundations headed by his three children. This is a significant shift[citation needed] from previous statements Buffett has made, having stated that most of his fortune would pass to his Buffett Foundation.[citation needed] The bulk of the estate of his wife, valued at $2.6 billion, went to that foundation when she died in 2004.
His children will not inherit a significant proportion of his wealth. These actions are consistent with statements he has made in the past indicating his opposition to the transfer of great fortunes from one generation to the next. Buffett once commented, "I want to give my kids just enough so that they would feel that they could do anything, but not so much that they would feel like doing nothing".
The following quotation from 1988, respectively, highlights Warren Buffett's thoughts on his wealth and why he long planned to re-allocate it:
"I don't have a problem with guilt about money. The way I see it is that my money represents an enormous number of claim checks on society. It's like I have these little pieces of paper that I can turn into consumption. If I wanted to, I could hire 10,000 people to do nothing but paint my picture every day for the rest of my life. And the GNP would go up. But the utility of the product would be zilch, and I would be keeping those 10,000 people from doing AIDS research, or teaching, or nursing. I don't do that though. I don't use very many of those claim checks. There's nothing material I want very much. And I'm going to give virtually all of those claim checks to charity when my wife and I die. (Lowe 1997:165–166)
On 27th June 2008, Zhao Danyang, a general manager at Pure Heart China Growth Investment Fund, won the 2008 5-day online "Power Lunch with Warren Buffett" charity auction on eBay with high bid of $2,110,100. Zhao had the right to dine with 76-year-old Buffett, at New York's Smith & Wollensky Steakhouse, and invite up to 7 companions for the private lunch and can ask Buffett anything at all, except what he's buying or selling. Auction proceeds benefit the San Francisco Glide Foundation. In 2007 Mohnish Pabrai dined with Buffett.
Buffett also helped Dow Chemical pay for its $18.8 billion takeover of Rohm & Haas. He thus became the single largest shareholder in the enlarged group with his Berkshire Hathaway, which provided $3 billion, underlining his instrumental role during the current crisis in debt and equity markets.

Often called the "Oracle of Omaha", or "the Sage of Omaha", Buffett is noted for his adherence to the value investing philosophy and for his personal frugality despite his immense wealth. His 2006 annual salary was about $100,000, which is small compared to senior executive remuneration in comparable companies. When Buffett spent $9.7 million of Berkshire's funds on a private jet in 1989, he jokingly named it "The Indefensible" because of his past criticisms of such purchases by other CEOs. He lives in the same house in the central Dundee neighborhood of Omaha that he bought in 1958 for $31,500 and today, it is valued at around $700,000. Buffett also is a notable philanthropist. In 2006, he announced a plan to give away his fortune to charity, with 83% of it going to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. In 2007, he was listed among Time's 100 Most Influential People in The World. He also serves as a member of the board of trustees at Grinnell College.
Early life and Benjamin Graham
Warren Buffett was born in Omaha, Nebraska on 30th August 1930, to Leila (Stahl) and Howard Buffett. As the son of a local stockbroker, it is likely that he was exposed to markets at a very young age.
Benjamin Graham(1894–1976) Benjamin Graham(1894–1976)
Benjamin Graham
(1894–1976)
Phil
Fisher
(1907–2004)
One of his influential mentors was Benjamin Graham. Graham’s philosophy had such an impact on Buffett that he enrolled in Columbia Business School to study directly under him. In Buffett’s own words: “I’m 15 percent Fisher and 85 percent Benjamin Graham”. As Buffett often would say about Graham’s teachings: “The basic ideas of investing are to look at stocks as business, use the market's fluctuations to your advantage, and seek a margin of safety. That’s what Ben Graham taught us. A hundred years from now they will still be the cornerstones of investing”.
Political connections
In addition to other political contributions over the years, Mr. Buffett has formally endorsed and made campaign contributions to Barack Obama's presidential campaign. On 2nd July 2008, Mr. Buffett attended a $28,500 per plate fundraiser for Mr. Obama's campaign in Chicago hosted by Mr. Obama's National Finance Chair, Penny Pritzker and her husband, as well as Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett.
During the second 2008 U.S. presidential debate, candidates John McCain and Barack Obama, after being asked first by presidential debate mediator Tom Brokaw, both mentioned Buffett as a possible future Secretary of the Treasury.
Later, in the third and final presidential debate, Obama mentioned Buffett as a potential economic advisor.[citation needed] Buffett was also finance advisor to California Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger during his 2003 election campaign.
Writings
Warren Buffett's writings include his annual reports and various articles. In his article "The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville", Buffett condemned the academic position that the market was efficient and that beating the S&P 500 was "pure chance" by highlighting a number of students of the Graham and Dodd value investing school of thought. In addition to himself, Buffett named Walter J. Schloss, Tom Knapp, Ed Anderson (Tweedy, Brown Inc.), Bill Ruane (Sequoia Fund, Inc.), Charles Munger, Warren Parkkonen (Speedtroller LLC), Rick Guerin (Pacific Partners, Ltd.), and Stan Perlmeter (Perlmeter Investments)
Personal life
Mr. Buffett married Susan Thompson in 1952. They had three children, Susie, Howard, and Peter. The couple began living separately in 1977, although they remained married until her death in July 2004. Their daughter Susie lives in Omaha and does charitable work through the Susan A. Buffett Foundation and is a national board member of Girls, Inc.
In 2006, on his seventy-sixth birthday, he married his never-married longtime-companion, Astrid Menks, who was then sixty years old. She had lived with him since his wife's departure in 1977 to San Francisco. It was Susan Buffett who arranged for the two to meet before she left Omaha to pursue her singing career. All three were close and holiday cards to friends were signed "Warren, Susie and Astrid". Susan Buffett briefly discussed this relationship in an interview on the Charlie Rose Show shortly before her death, in a rare glimpse into Buffett's personal life.
It did not move markets, and Berkshire Hathaway shares barely budged, but the marriage of Warren E. Buffett, the Omaha billionaire, to his longtime companion, Astrid Menks, had the financial world all abuzz yesterday.
Mr. Buffett and Ms. Menks formalized a relationship of more than 20 years in a brief civil ceremony at his daughter’s house in Omaha Wednesday afternoon.
The new Mrs. Buffett, 60, has been the constant companion to the 76-year-old financier, even as he remained married to his first wife, Susan T. Buffett, who died in 2004.
The first Mrs. Buffett, who had lived apart from her husband since the late 1970’s, knew and approved of the relationship with Ms. Menks.
“She has been with my father all these years for all the right reasons,” Mr. Buffett’s daughter, Susie Buffett, said in a telephone interview. “I’m so thankful. She loves him and takes care of him. If Warren didn’t have a cent, she’d be with him.”
Investors who thought Berkshire Hathaway shares might have been affected by Mr. Buffett’s domestic bliss saw hardly a blip in the price yesterday — up $296, or 0.3 percent, to close at $96,097.
The marriage is the second time this year that Mr. Buffett has made headlines. In June, he agreed to donate the vast bulk of his $40 billion personal fortune to foundations run by Bill and Melinda Gates, his children and one named for his late wife. Mr. Buffett said when announcing those plans that his health was excellent.
When together and out socially, Mr. Buffett, the older, wise-cracking businessman, seems proud to be with the former Ms. Menks, who is known for putting others at ease.
Mr. Buffett declined to comment, his assistant, Debbie Bosanek, said. Susie Buffett said her new stepmother also preferred not to comment. The wedding was reported yesterday in The Omaha World-Herald.
In many ways, Mr. Buffett has portrayed himself as the business world’s guardian of homespun values — decrying fat paychecks for executives, shunning technology stocks because he didn’t personally understand the businesses, and criticizing tax policies that encourage trading of stocks rather than the patient buy-and-hold approach he favors.
In his personal life, however, Mr. Buffett has been less conventional. His first wife, Susan, left the family home in Omaha in the late 1970’s, after raising the couple’s three children, and moved to San Francisco.
And she introduced a friend, Ms. Menks, to her husband and encouraged Ms. Menks to take care of Mr. Buffett.
The two women had become friends at an Omaha restaurant where Susan Buffett sang and Astrid Menks seated patrons.
“Unconventional is not a bad thing,” Susie Buffett said. “More people should have unconventional marriages.” She said her mother, who was also known as Susie, wanted to be known for who she was, especially as her father’s wealth and fame grew.
“She basically wanted a room of her own. They were very connected in a very deep way,” speaking frequently on the telephone and traveling together, Susie Buffett said. “They didn’t need to be in the same room.”
“Astrid and my mother were very close — really loved each other,” Susie Buffett said.
In an interview with Charlie Rose shortly before her death, the first Mrs. Buffett said of Ms. Menks’s relationship with her husband: “She takes great care of him, and he appreciates it and I appreciate it. She’s a wonderful person.”
Mr. Buffett and his new wife are both known for their frugality. He hunts for bargain stocks and lives simply for a man of his wealth. She often shopped in thrift stores for clothing, assembling fashionable outfits.
“They had a relationship that was so unusual, so fine, and so sophisticated — all three of those people,” said Cedric Hartman, an Omaha furniture maker and friend to the Buffetts for many years.
“We all got to know Astrid about the same time,” Mr. Hartman said. An immigrant from Latvia, “she appeared in town and you couldn’t miss her. She was smart, good-looking and had personal style — she would have been a standout anywhere.”
After she and Mr. Buffett became a couple, friends often received cards signed, “Warren, Susie and Astrid,” according to “Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist” (Random House, 1995), a biography by Roger Lowenstein.
After his first wife’s death, Mr. Buffett changed his plans for his fortune. Initially, the bulk was to go to the foundation named for his late wife, which supports birth control efforts internationally. But watching the work of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, he became convinced it could make better use of the bulk of his fortune.
He also began to think about marrying Ms. Menks, his daughter said. “He’s been talking about this for a while. It’s something he wanted to do.”
Last Saturday, Mr. Buffett and his daughter went to Borsheim’s Fine Jewelry in Omaha, which is owned by his conglomerate, Berkshire Hathaway, to pick out a ring.
Did Mr. Buffett get the employee discount? “I’m sure he did,” Susie Buffett said.
The bride didn’t see the ring until Wednesday afternoon’s ceremony. “It’s lovely,” Ms. Buffett said. “I think she’s thrilled with it.”
A local judge performed the 15-minute ceremony. The only witness besides Susie Buffett was the bride’s sister; Mr. Buffett’s two sons were out of the country. Afterward, Mr. and Mrs. Buffett, ever thrifty, took them to dinner at Bonefish Grill, a casual seafood restaurant.
He remains an avid player of the card game bridge, and has said that he spends twelve hours a week playing the game. He often plays with Bill Gates and Paul Allen.[citation needed]
In 2006, he sponsored a bridge match for the Buffett Cup. Modeled on the Ryder Cup in golf, held immediately before it, and in the same city, a team of twelve bridge players from the United States took on twelve Europeans in the event.
In 2006, he auctioned his 2001 Lincoln Town Car on eBay to raise money for Girls, Inc.
Warren Buffett works with Christopher Webber on an animated series with DiC Entertainment chief Andy Heyward. According to information presented by Buffett at the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting on May 6, 2006, the series will feature Buffett and Munger in roles and the series will teach children healthy financial habits for life. Cartoon drawings of Buffett and Munger were displayed throughout the events during the weekend as well as in a special animated movie from Heyward, displayed before the meeting.
Buffett has described himself as agnostic when it comes to religious beliefs.
In December 2006 it was reported that Mr. Buffett does not carry a cell phone, does not have a computer at his desk, and drives his own automobile, a Cadillac DTS.
In 2007, he auctioned a luncheon with him that raised a final bid of $650,100 for a charity.
Buffett's DNA report revealed that his paternal ancestors hail from northern Scandinavia, namely the Warren Parkkonen family of Finland, while his maternal ancestors most likely have roots in Iberia or Estonia. Despite widespread suggestions to the contrary, and the casual friendship which has developed between their families, Warren Buffett is no clear relation to the famous Warren Parkkonen and the well-known singer Jimmy Buffett.

* Buffett applied for admission to Harvard Business School, but was turned down.
* Buffett enrolled at Columbia Business School after learning that Benjamin Graham and David Dodd, two well-known securities analysts, taught there.
1951: (21 years old)
* Buffett discovered Graham was on the board of GEICO insurance at the time. After taking a train to Washington, D.C. on a Saturday, Buffett knocked on the door of GEICO's headquarters until a janitor allowed him in. There, he met Lorimer Davidson, the vice president, who was to become a lasting influence on him and life-long friend. They talked for four hours about the insurance business. Davidson recalled that he found Buffett to be an “extraordinary man” after fifteen minutes.
* Buffett was graduated from Columbia and wanted to work on Wall Street. Both his father and Ben Graham urged him not to. Buffett offered to work for Graham for free, but Graham refused. He purchased a Sinclair Texaco gas station as a side investment, but that venture did not work out as well as he had hoped. Meanwhile, he worked as a stockbroker. During that time, Buffett also took a Dale Carnegie public speaking course.

* Buffett emphasized the non-productive aspect of gold in 1998 at Harvard: "It gets dug out of the ground in Africa, or someplace. Then we melt it down, dig another hole, bury it again and pay people to stand around guarding it. It has no utility. Anyone watching from Mars would be scratching their head." In 1977 Buffett was also quoted as saying about stocks, gold, farmland, and inflation: "stocks are probably still the best of all the poor alternatives in an era of inflation - at least they are if you buy in at appropriate prices."
* Buffett stated that he only paid 19% of his income for 2006 ($48.1 million) in total federal taxes, while his employees paid 33% of theirs, despite making much less money.
* Buffett believes that the U.S. dollar will lose value in the long run. He views the United States' expanding trade deficit as an alarming trend that will devalue the U.S. dollar and U.S. assets. As a result it is putting a larger portion of ownership of U.S. assets in the hands of foreigners. This induced Buffett to enter the foreign currency market for the first time in 2002. However, he substantially reduced his stake in 2005 as changing interest rates increased the costs of holding currency contracts. Buffett continues to be bearish on the dollar, and says he is looking to make acquisitions of companies which derive a substantial portion of their revenues from outside the United States. Buffett invested in PetroChina Company Limited and in a rare move, posted a commentary on Berkshire Hathaway's website stating why he would not divest from the company despite calls from some activists to do so. (He did, however, sell this stake, apparently for purely financial reasons.)
* Buffett believes that the world is nearing its maximum capacity of oil production and that gradually depleted oil fields could reduce the amount produced.
* Buffett believes government should not be in the business of gambling, believing it to be a tax on ignorance.
* Buffett's speeches are known for mixing business discussions with humor. Each year, Buffett presides over Berkshire Hathaway's annual shareholder meeting in the Qwest Center in Omaha, Nebraska, an event drawing over 20,000 visitors from both United States and abroad, giving it the nickname "Woodstock of Capitalism".
* Berkshire's annual reports and letters to shareholders, prepared by Buffett, frequently receive coverage by the financial media. Buffett's writings are known for containing literary quotes ranging from the Bible to Mae West, as well as Midwestern advice, and numerous jokes. Various websites extol Buffett's virtues while others decry Buffett’s business models or dismiss his investment advice and decisions.
* Buffett favors the inheritance tax, saying that repealing it would be like "choosing the 2020 Olympic team by picking the eldest sons of the gold-medal winners in the 2000 Olympics". In 2007, Buffett testified before the Senate and urged them to preserve the estate tax so as to avoid a plutocracy.
* Buffett has endorsed Barack Obama for president and intimated that John McCain's views on social justice were so far from his own that McCain would need a "lobotomy" for Buffett to change his endorsement.
* Buffett has called the 2007—present downturn in the financial sector "poetic justice".
* In his letter to shareholders in March, 2005, Warren Buffett predicted that in another ten years’ time the net ownership of the U.S. by outsiders would amount to $11 trillion. “Americans … would chafe at the idea of perpetually paying tribute to their creditors and owners abroad. A country that is now aspiring to an ‘ownership society’ will not find happiness in - and I’ll use hyperbole here for emphasis - a 'sharecropping society’.”
* Author Ann Pettifor has adopted the image in her writings and has stated: "He is right. And so the thing we must fear most now, is not just the collapse of banks and investment funds, or of the international financial architecture, but of a 'sharecropper society, angry at its downfall."
Philosophy On Wealth
From a NY Times article: "I don't believe in dynastic wealth," [Warren Buffett] said, calling those who grow up in wealthy circumstances "members of the lucky sperm club." Buffett has written several times of his belief that, in a market economy, the rich earn outsized rewards for their talents. The following is taken from one of Buffett's articles: "A market economy creates some lopsided payoffs to participants. The right endowment of vocal chords, anatomical structure, physical strength, or mental powers can produce enormous piles of claim checks (stocks, bonds, and other forms of capital) on future national output. Proper selection of ancestors similarly can result in lifetime supplies of such tickets upon birth. If zero real investment returns diverted a bit greater portion of the national output from such stockholders to equally worthy and hardworking citizens lacking jackpot-producing talents, it would seem unlikely to pose such an insult to an equitable world as to risk Divine Intervention.
Philanthropy
In June 2006, Buffett gave approximately 10 million Berkshire Hathaway Class B shares to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (worth approximately USD 30.7 billion as of 23rd June 2006) making it the largest charitable donation in history and Buffett one of the leaders in the philanthrocapitalism revolution. The foundation will receive 5% of the total donation on an annualised basis each July, beginning in 2006. Buffett also will join the board of directors of the Gates Foundation, although he does not plan to be actively involved in the foundation's investments.[citation needed]
He also announced plans to contribute additional Berkshire stock valued at approximately $6.7 billion to the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation and to other foundations headed by his three children. This is a significant shift[citation needed] from previous statements Buffett has made, having stated that most of his fortune would pass to his Buffett Foundation.[citation needed] The bulk of the estate of his wife, valued at $2.6 billion, went to that foundation when she died in 2004.
His children will not inherit a significant proportion of his wealth. These actions are consistent with statements he has made in the past indicating his opposition to the transfer of great fortunes from one generation to the next. Buffett once commented, "I want to give my kids just enough so that they would feel that they could do anything, but not so much that they would feel like doing nothing".
The following quotation from 1988, respectively, highlights Warren Buffett's thoughts on his wealth and why he long planned to re-allocate it:
"I don't have a problem with guilt about money. The way I see it is that my money represents an enormous number of claim checks on society. It's like I have these little pieces of paper that I can turn into consumption. If I wanted to, I could hire 10,000 people to do nothing but paint my picture every day for the rest of my life. And the GNP would go up. But the utility of the product would be zilch, and I would be keeping those 10,000 people from doing AIDS research, or teaching, or nursing. I don't do that though. I don't use very many of those claim checks. There's nothing material I want very much. And I'm going to give virtually all of those claim checks to charity when my wife and I die. (Lowe 1997:165–166)
On 27th June 2008, Zhao Danyang, a general manager at Pure Heart China Growth Investment Fund, won the 2008 5-day online "Power Lunch with Warren Buffett" charity auction on eBay with high bid of $2,110,100. Zhao had the right to dine with 76-year-old Buffett, at New York's Smith & Wollensky Steakhouse, and invite up to 7 companions for the private lunch and can ask Buffett anything at all, except what he's buying or selling. Auction proceeds benefit the San Francisco Glide Foundation. In 2007 Mohnish Pabrai dined with Buffett.
Buffett also helped Dow Chemical pay for its $18.8 billion takeover of Rohm & Haas. He thus became the single largest shareholder in the enlarged group with his Berkshire Hathaway, which provided $3 billion, underlining his instrumental role during the current crisis in debt and equity markets.

I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For several years , I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and I started with funny 500 bucks.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my blog to get additional info.
