Listen "Reaching that Comfortable Number in Retirement"
Episode Synopsis
The sixth richest man in the world ($104 billion net worth) enjoys a simple, frugal life. Buffett still lives in the same starter home he bought in 1958. He begins the day with a McDonald’s breakfast and even clips coupons. And Buffett doesn’t splurge on expensive hobbies. In fact, he told CBS Sunday Morning that he plays bridge about 8 hours a week!
