Warren Buffet
Warren Buffet is the most successful investor of the 20th century and one of the richest men in the world. Buffet was born in Omaha, Nebraska in 1930. He first became an investor at the age of eleven. (1)_____________ He also bought chewing gum, Coca-Cola and magazines from him and sold them to neighbours. (2)_____________ By his early thirties, he had become a millionaire, and by 1990 he was a billionaire.
But although he is very rich, his lifestyle isn’t particularly extravagant. (3)_____________ It only cost him $31,500! He doesn’t carry a mobile phone and he doesn’t have a computer on his desk. Buffet says he eats the same things he has always eaten: burgers, fries and Coke. (4)_____________ Not only is he very modest, but he is also very generous. He has already given billions of dollars to charities and says that he will eventually give away 99% of his money. (5)_____________ He once said, ‘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.”
