Warren Buffett’s secret to staying young: “I eat like a six-year-old.”

[polychronopolous]

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.



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?

[The Abdominal Snoman]

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...

[Tennisballz]

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.

[polychronopolous]

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.

[Tapeworm]

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.

Yeah I'll kick back with a wine cooler a stogie and have a few chuckles while you undertake that little endeavor.

Let's see him in a glittery thing and let his body do the talking.

So much for that idea...



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.

[muscleman-2017]

And you have the mind of a five-year-old..

How does it feel?

Me owning your mind?

He meant to say he EATS 6yr olds.
