There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the third richest man who has donated $31 billion to charity . Here are some very   interesting aspects of his life:
1. He bought his first share at age 11 and he 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 mid-town Omaha that  he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything  he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.
4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security  people around him.
5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world’s largest  private jet company.

7. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His past time after he  gets home is to make himself some pop corn and watch Television.
8. Bill Gates, the world’s second richest man met him for the first time only 5  years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren  Buffet. So he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren  Buffet.
