How does the world's top investor, at 84 years old, wake up every day and face the world with boundless energy?
"I'm one quarter Coca-Cola," Warren Buffett says.
When he told me this in a phone call yesterday (we were talking about the death of his friend, former Coca-Cola president Don Keough), I assumed he was talking about his stock portfolio.
No, Buffett explained, "If I eat 2700 calories a day, a quarter of that is Coca-Cola. I drink at least five 12-ounce servings. I do it everyday."
Perhaps only a man who owns $16 billion in Coca-Cola (KO, +1.88%) stock—9% of Coke, through his company, Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA)—would maintain such an odd daily diet. One 12-ounce can of Coke contains 140 calories. Typically, Buffett says, "I have three Cokes during the day and two at night."
When he's at his desk at Berkshire Hathaway headquarters in Omaha, he drinks regular Coke; at home, he treats himself to Cherry Coke.

"I'll have one at breakfast," he explains, noting that he loves to drink Coke with potato sticks. What brand of potato sticks? "I have a can right here," he says. "U-T-Z" Utz is a Hanover, Pennsylvania-based snack maker. Buffett says that he's talked to Utz management about potentially buying the company.
Investors in Berkshire Hathaway may feel relieved that the CEO isn't addicted to Utz Potato Stix at every breakfast. "This morning, I had a bowl of chocolate chip ice cream," Buffett says.
(https://fortunedotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/gettyimages_175508996.jpg?quality=80)
Asked to explain the high-sugar, high-salt diet that has somehow enabled him to remain seemingly healthy, Buffett replies: "I checked the actuarial tables, and the lowest death rate is among six-year-olds. So I decided to eat like a six-year-old." The octogenarian adds, "It's the safest course I can take."

Yeah and they are only six years old. Brilliant - not!
Not sure if I believe this crap or he is on some special meds. That is way too much sugar per day for most people and how active is he really?
-
He looks every bit his age. The guy is rich beyond belief but he's a mess physique wise. The guy's penis probably hasn't worked in 50 years. So he puts all his energy into making money...
-
He's just an anecdotal anomaly. Most who eat that way die far younger than they should from chronic disease.

Fuck this crony capitalist hack.

He utilizes the Adonis Principles for success.
The way he threw out a specific caloric number(2700 per day), makes you wonder just how much lurking Mr. Buffett has done around this site.
-
Fuck this crony capitalist hack.
Yep. Can't take him seriously after seeing a vid of him explaining why sending jobs overseas is a good thing. Because higher profits = better economy. It was an anti-Trump vid, I think, in support of agreements like NAFTA and the Pacific one.
Ya higher profits for the rich. Meanwhile the rest of us are poorer every year. Go get a Big Mac with the grandkids and stfu, Warren. You seem like a sweet old man. Be a damn shame if we had to attend to you.

The only thing that is compounding is the interest you owe on your credit card debt(s). The whole thing is a scam system. The majority of the blokes on here need to wake up.

He forgot to mention the blood transfusions.
-
genetics is key. i would die from ulcer if i did this much coke every day. his stomach perfectly agrees with it.
-
Who knows? Maybe he's running on multiple transplanted organs. Maybe he had his colon removed and walks around with a pooh bag attached to his side.
-
right. never assume.
-
Might be. It all comes down to genes of course, as someone already pointed out.
From what I have observed Mr. Buffett is very passionate, active, always learning and interested of things, enjoying life and cracking jokes here and there. He has young attitude. Many people - especially men - become bored fucks waiting for death latest at my age. That can't be good for your health either.

Isn't that the rogue whore of the family?
She tried to use the Buffett name whereas Warren has always been very low profile and taught his kids to sport relatively modest lifestyle.
Disgusting bitch. Glad WB but her in her place.

if we just talk about Warren, to me, he is too frugal. Why not have a nice car and splurge a little when you are a billionaire? I really don't see the point of his overly frugal lifestyle.
-

I think it's something "coded" in him.
He started by working very hard: delivering newspapers and investing the money and all that shit. Maybe after becoming super rich he was not able to let off the lifestyle anymore. It had grown into him.
I got impression he just enjoys making money and doesn't care too much what the money can buy.

His pleasure in life is the acquisition of money, the true definition of a miser.

Warren's frugality is the secret to his wealth. He never bought a new car because he knows how much he can turn that money into over the life of the car. His daughter tells the story of how he would drive an old car until she could finally convince him to buy a new one. Then he would have her look for hail damaged cars so he could get a good deal on a car with dents in the hood.

He has invested in the Chinese car company BYD (Build Your Dreams). It makes crappy cars and mediocre electric cars, but it also makes electric buses. BYD's buses are in California and in London.

I've once had a short chat with IKEA's founder Ingvar Kamprad, and he has pretty much the same lifestyle. He drives (or was driving?) a 20+ year old Volvo and was often eating at his local IKEA store. He was pretty down to earth and wasn't surrounded by guards.
-
The thing about him is we probably will never see him sick. If he doesn't just drop dead, he'll probably go into hiding never to be seen again. Ronald Reagan was sent into hiding for over a decade to help preserve his "legacy".

The guy is a complete dick. He could at least incorporated his kids and family into his companies so they could have a chance to earn the money.
-
He meant to say he EATS 6yr olds.
Well he's rich, so could almost certainly afford free-range 6yr olds. Also, they would have the ultimate level of bio-availability - higher even than Levrone Signature series LevroWheySupremeTM if you can believe such a thing to be a scient-ifish possibility...
The flesh of frightened orphans and blood of virgins keeps you healthy and rich.
True. (Pro-tip here: it's an industry secret that the blood of frightened virgins gives you the power to pierce the veil and communicate with the spirit of Joe Weider himself for posing advice, etc...)
-
He's in good shape.

Not sure if serious.
World is already too full of totally incompetent arrogant fucks who just happened to born to right parents.
Plus Buffett's company is publicly listed. He can't give a job to everyone without purpose... company's mission is to produce maximal profit for the shareholders.

Like Paris Hilton---did a porn film, reality show, pictured with "drugs" on her, just a socialite.
This grandchild is a nanny and paints. It could be because she doesn't care about the money, or not driven to blaze a path like her grandfather, who knows.

If you guys are too lazy/illiterate to read the massive Snowball book, check this docu out.
IMO one can learn a lot from Buffett. Not just about his philosophy of investing (which most people don't have patience to follow anyway) but about life in general.
One of the most inspiring people alive and my personal favorites.

I don't know what you're quite asking. It's simply the opposite of someone who spends too carelessly, like your typical sports star dindu.

You really need to be critical of what he did during the 2008/09 financial crisis. 60-70% of Buffett's assets were wiped out during that time... most people don't know that. Buffett 'invested' a few billion into the big 6 troubled banks only after he was promised a 10% coupon and was given inside info that the Treasury and Fed Reserve were going to print trillions of dollars to keep these zombie banks afloat.
Buffett is a crony capitalist, globalist, inside trader, collectivist and a destroyer of jobs... every company he buys he's ends up firing 50% of the workforce. He licked Obama's asshole when he was POTUS. He hates gold (unlike his father).
I'm going to have a party when Buffett and Charlie Munger drop dead.

That's a bizarre statement. Every single day, the scientific community brings us evidence that lifestyle factors have a huge impact on someone's longevity.

My Aunt lived to 93 and drank a 6 pack of Pepsi every single day of her life for prob 40 years and she ate most of her meals from the Schwans truck. Who gives fuck what he eats, there are many others who ate that way who are dead.

I grandpa lived into his 90's. Everybody thought he'd be the first to die, but he outlived all his bros & sisters a atl d my grandma n her sisters. Dude was 6'+ (6'4"?, but shrank down to 6ft overvtime) & 320lbs vast majority of his life. Ate pancakes eggs n sausage every morning and porkchops everyday plus sweets/cakes(grandmanwas a baker/cook.) and pot after pot of coffee. Plus smoking unfiltered Chesterfield and riding an open cab tractor all day into his 80's. Dudes skin was like a baseball glove from the 1920's. Had kidney & heart failure as well as leukaemia in his last years. Some ppls bodies are resilient.
-
All hair splitting aside, I think it's important to eat things that you like.
If you can find a bunch of relatively healthy foods, try cooking them at home, and try seeing if they can align somewhat with the general macro breakdown you should be hitting, you're wayyyyy ahead of the curve.
So many fatasses try counting calories, hitting very rigid macro breakdowns, meal prepping shitty meals, etc, and they all fail. I just try cooking at home, eat somewhat healthy (although I never compromise taste for health - food should taste amazing) and eat infrequently (intermittent fasting). I'm under 10% body fat year round and I never have an unhealthy relationship with food, never have to deprive myself, never eat baked or boiled chicken breasts or any bullshit like that. Just eat tasty food, people. You'll be happier.

So one single individual did an experiment? In other words, there this was no double-blind study ::)
Eating low calories and shitty foods are two completely different things.

Like I said, two different things, it's like comparing a monkey and a banana. Logic reasoning isn't your strongest point, but again, I can't wait to read your scientific paper of peace.

Monkeys eat bananas but sometimes monkeys also eat other monkeys. Never turn your back on a vegetarian.

One thing I have learnt is when you have money dont be cheap with yourself because when you die you cant take the money with you and other people will just take that money and go on a spending spree, even if you leave it to a charity it wont matter because the same people running the charity will dip their hands in it and steal some.

With that mentality, you'll be working until you die.

How does the world's top investor, at 84 years old, wake up every day and face the world with boundless energy?
"I'm one quarter Coca-Cola," Warren Buffett says.
When he told me this in a phone call yesterday (we were talking about the death of his friend, former Coca-Cola president Don Keough), I assumed he was talking about his stock portfolio.
No, Buffett explained, "If I eat 2700 calories a day, a quarter of that is Coca-Cola. I drink at least five 12-ounce servings. I do it everyday."
Perhaps only a man who owns $16 billion in Coca-Cola (KO, +1.88%) stock—9% of Coke, through his company, Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA)—would maintain such an odd daily diet. One 12-ounce can of Coke contains 140 calories. Typically, Buffett says, "I have three Cokes during the day and two at night."
When he's at his desk at Berkshire Hathaway headquarters in Omaha, he drinks regular Coke; at home, he treats himself to Cherry Coke.
(https://fortunedotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/k2-_1c8cbf2f-6299-4750-8d28-af24276de9fc-v1.jpg?quality=80)
"I'll have one at breakfast," he explains, noting that he loves to drink Coke with potato sticks. What brand of potato sticks? "I have a can right here," he says. "U-T-Z" Utz is a Hanover, Pennsylvania-based snack maker. Buffett says that he's talked to Utz management about potentially buying the company.
Investors in Berkshire Hathaway may feel relieved that the CEO isn't addicted to Utz Potato Stix at every breakfast. "This morning, I had a bowl of chocolate chip ice cream," Buffett says.

Asked to explain the high-sugar, high-salt diet that has somehow enabled him to remain seemingly healthy, Buffett replies: "I checked the actuarial tables, and the lowest death rate is among six-year-olds. So I decided to eat like a six-year-old." The octogenarian adds, "It's the safest course I can take."
He's worth 76 billion dollars. How much pussy can he get for that money? Funny, the richest men in the world (Bill Gates - 86 billion, Mark Zuckerberg - 60 billion) are the ugliest and geekiest guys in the world.

Insurance cover the new car?
Paid out of pocket. Big caliber rounds. 30cal (308/30-06/9mm.7.62) more pissed about the leather inside getting fucked up than the bodywork. Id guess it was rifle rounds since a 9mm/380 woudnt have fucked shit up inside as bad.

Everywhere does have white trash and shit cops, but the percentage of them in nebraska is high. There isnt shit in nebraska though (same could be said for a lot of the midwest). Seems all they do is farm & work shitty construction jobs, go to bars and drink afterwards, & use meth all day.
What's wrong with Indians? That's a whole'nother thread. A whole group of ppl who hate white ppl more that black folks who get their Indian casino checks and spend it on booze and meth (& gas station slot machines), steal and go to prison.. Get out and repeat.

Monkeys eat bananas but sometimes monkeys also eat other monkeys. Never turn your back on a vegetarian.

You really need to be critical of what he did during the 2008/09 financial crisis. 60-70% of Buffett's assets were wiped out during that time... most people don't know that. Buffett 'invested' a few billion into the big 6 troubled banks only after he was promised a 10% coupon and was given inside info that the Treasury and Fed Reserve were going to print trillions of dollars to keep these zombie banks afloat.
Buffett is a crony capitalist, globalist, inside trader, collectivist and a destroyer of jobs... every company he buys he's ends up firing 50% of the workforce. He licked Obama's asshole when he was POTUS. He hates gold (unlike his father).
I'm going to have a party when Buffett and Charlie Munger drop dead.
For once we agree. Great post
