#MondayMorningDrive ~ The Pick – Investor, Philanthropist and Businessman Warren Buffett
“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you’ll do things differently.” ~Warren Buffet
The majority of the world probably knows him because of his status as one of the wealthiest people in the world. But outside of his wealth and immensely calculated business/investment decisions and frugal lifestyle, Buffett is equally known for being one of the most giving people in the world. With a net worth in excess of $50 billion, Buffett has pledged (and has already started) giving away 99% of his fortune to charity.
We’re inducting him into our Autobahn Society because of his influence and ability to lead by example in business, philanthropy and life. We thank Warren Buffett for showing that the power is not just about earning money and building your net worth, but it is also in the gift of giving.
