The Second Richest Person in the World
There was a one-hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffett, the second richest person in the world, who donated $ 31 billion dollars to charity. Here are some interesting aspects of his life:
1 .- He bought his first share at age 11 and now regrets that he started too late!
2 .- He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.
3 .- He still lives in the same small 3-bedroom house in Omaha that he bought after he married 50 years ago. He says he has everything he needs in that house. Her house has no fence or gate.
4 .- He drives his own car everywhere and does not carry a driver or bodyguard.
5 .- He never travels by private jet, although he owns the largest private jet company in the world.
6 .- His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls regularly.
He has given his CEO’s only two rules:
• Rule 1: Do not lose any money from its shareholders.
• Rule 2: Do not forget rule number 1.
7 .- He does not socialize with people of high society. His pastime after he gets home is to prepare some popcorn and watch television.
8 .- Bill Gates, the world’s richest man met him for only 5 years ago. Bill Gates thought he had nothing in common with Warren Buffett. So he had scheduled the meeting for only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffett.
9 .- Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.
10 .- Her advice to young people:
Stay away from credit cards and invest in yourself.
