Default Re: Is there anyone living you would pay $16k to eat lunch with?

Sorry to come up with the right answer and ruin your thread.

Warren Buffett

Lunch with him would be worth $16k to practically everyone on this board (assuming you would be smart enough to listen to him)...easily.

You really think you would learn more from him in one lunch then you would say spending $20 on The Intelligent Investor and reading it?

I just don't see what information he would and could give out that would be all that ground breaking. His basic investing outlook can be found in the above book. I guess if you got a few really good tips it could be worth it but from what I've read about him, this seems highly unlikely when it comes to information that is not already within the public domain.

Once you get to this stage, you're more a cult than a man. It would be enough to sit in contemplation of the Lord.
