gonores,

That's a pretty silly post. Makes you sound both arrogant and ignorant, imo.

You vastly overestimate how much you're going to take away from a lunch w/ Buffett.

You will get far more out of reading and studying his writings/actions than having lunch with him.

It's not like you're going to have lunch and he'll be like "well, gonores, here's my tip. My team has been working hard analyzing every company around and CRUNK!!! Energy Drink is definitely going to be the next Coca-Cola. Get in now!!!!!"

Edited to add: If this were something like 16k to be an intern/assistant to Buffett for a year, whole different ballgame.

this is really pretty funny since i turned down eating lunch with salman rushdie....

my gf's roomate in college was going to eat lunch at him since he was giving a speech at my school.

She and her aunt were going to have lunch with him since her aunt knew rushdie from somewhere in their past....

didn't want to be the 3rd wheel...(4th wheel in that case)

I would pay 16k to meet Osama Bin Laden for lunch, but the only thing he'd be eating is lead.

there we go. The only person Id pay a significant amount of money to eat lunch with, was someone who had a price on their head worth more than the cost of the lunch

How about someone like Sadaam Hussien, or some other tyrant with translator. I think something like that would be really interesting.

There are probably a few people I would pay this for, and I am not that rich.
