something i would like to share with you - my mates. There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the secondrichest man who has donated $31 billion to charity. Here are some veryinteresting aspects of his life: 1. He bought his first share at age 11 and he now regrets that he startedtoo late! 2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from deliveringnewspapers. 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 haseverything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or afence. 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. 6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes onlyone letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis. Hehas given his CEO's only two rules. Rule number 1: do not lose any ofyour share holder's money. Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1. 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 richest man met him for the first time only 5years 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 whenGates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became adevotee of Warren Buffet. 9. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on hisdesk. His advice to young people:"Stay away from credit cards and invest in yourself and Remember: A.Money doesn't create man but it is the man who created money. B. Live your life as simple as you are. C. Don't do what others say, just listen them, but do what you feel good. D. Don't go on brand name; just wear those things in which u feel comfortable. E. Don't waste your money on unnecessary things; just spend on them who really in need rather.F.After all it's your life then why give chance to others to rule our life." goodday,mates.
