Warren Buffet ~

There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the second richest man who has donated $31 billion to charity. Here are some very interesting aspects of his life:

1. He bought his first share at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!

2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.

3. He still lives in the same small 3-bedroom house in mid-town Omaha , that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.

4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security people around him..

5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world's largest private jet company.

6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis. He has given his CEO's only two rules.

Rule number 1: do not lose any of your share holder's money.
Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.

7. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His past time after he gets home is to make himself some pop corn and watch Television.

8. Bill Gates, the world's richest man met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.

9. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.
His advice to young people :
"Stay away from credit cards and invest in yourself and Remember:

A. Money doesn't create man but it is the man who created money.
B. Live your life as simple as you are.
C. Don't do what others say, just listen to them, but do what makes you feel good.
D. Don't go on brand name; just wear those things in which you feel comfortable.
E. Don't waste your money on unnecessary things; just spend on things that you really need.
F. After all it's your life, then why give others the chance to rule your life."

Frequently Asked Questions About Christmas

Frequently Asked Questions About Christmas


Q: If Santa doesn't have to age, then why has he become old?
A: He only appears to be old. He's an undercover kid.



Q: How can a sleigh possibly fly through the air?
A: If you were being pulled by eight flying reindeer, wouldn't you fly too?


Q: Why do we wish people a "Merry Christmas" instead of a "Happy Christmas"? A: The two are about the same, but with "Merry Christmas" an extra twinkle is seen in the eyes.

A: It's dead but doesn't know it, and yet it's having the time of its life .

A: The best way to know for sure is to ask Santa Claus next time you see him.

things to take note...

01. YOU WILL RECEIVE A BODY...
You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire period you're around.

02. YOU WILL LEARN LESSONS...
You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called life.
Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons.
You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant and stupid.

03. THERE ARE NO MISTAKES, ONLY LESSONS...
Growth is a process of trial and error, experimentation.
The "Failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately "works".

04. A LESSON IS REPEATED UNTIL LEARNED...
A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it.
When you have learned it, you can then go on to the next lesson.

05. LEARNING LESSONS DOES NOT END...
There is no part of life that does not contain its lessons.
If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.

06. "THERE" IS NO BETTER THAN "HERE"...
When your "There" has become a "Here",
you will simply obtain another "There" that will, again, look better than "Here".

07. OTHERS ARE MERELY MIRRORS OF YOU...
You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.

08. WHAT YOU MAKE OF YOUR LIFE IS UP TO YOU...
You have all the tools and resources you need.
What you do with them is up to you.
The choice is yours.

09. YOUR ANSWERS LIE INSIDE YOU...
The answers to life's questions lie inside you.
All you need to do is look, listen and trust.

10. YOU WILL FORGET ALL THIS...
Unless you consistently stay focused on the goals you have set for yourself,
everything you've just read won't mean any thing.
