Here at The Fourth Edition, we love to take the time to appreciate the many speakers who grace us with their presence on the Hilltop. We’re fortunate enough to have many big names in government, business and culture share their knowledge with us … with some help from the Lecture Fund, of course. And Sept. 19 will be no different, as Berkshire Hathaway chairman and CEO Warren Buffet delivers some words of wisdom. As we’ve done in the past, we wanted to give you a little briefing on Warren’s many faces and what you can expect when he arrives on campus. Take a look:
This is Warren Buffett
He has lots of money …
$53.5 billion to be exact … if you could stack all of Warren Buffett’s money (in $100 bills), it would be the distance from campus to Annapolis … IN MONEY.
He got this money from working at Berkshire Hathaway as a primary shareholder, chairman and CEO.
Before that, he went to University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
(He also went to Columbia Business School).
He’s really just your average guy, though. He enjoys ice cream.
And basketball!
And he’s won the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Even though Mr. Buffett gets upset sometimes…
He’s usually a very happy man.
Maybe it’s because he’s giving away most of his fortune to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation …
… or maybe he’s just a ninja.
Either way, we can’t wait to hear from you on the Hilltop tomorrow at 5 p.m.!
