Warren Buffett is one of the

most successful and followed

investors in the world. Besides being the richest, he is one of the most known people for donating personal wealth. Buffett was born in 1930 in Omaha, Nebraska of distant French Huguenot descent.

Buffett displayed an interest in business and investing at a young age. While still in high school, he made money deliveringnewspapers, selling golf balls and stamps, and detailing cars, among other means. He formed Buffett Partnership Ltd. in 1956, and by 1965 he assumed control of Berkshire Hathaway.

In 2008, Buffett became the richest person in the world, with a total net worth of estimated at $ 62 billion by Forbes and $ 58 billion by Yahoo, overtaking Bill Gates, who had been number one on Forbes' list for 13 consecutive years.

Despite being a wealthy man on earth, he has set various standards of simple living. Even though he is recognized as the world's third richest man with a fortune of $ 46 billion, investor Warren Buffett, the 'Wizard of Omaha', still lives in the same modest home he bought in 1958 for $31,500 only.
