your leaving money to your kids, not leaving it to them,
but giving it to them while you're still alive.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Warren Buffett is one of the richest men in the world.
He is worth one hundred and twenty billion dollars. He
says he's leaving nothing to his kids. He's in his
nineties now. He's leaving nothing to his kids, but he
will leave money to their charitable foundations. He's leaving a
lot of money philanthropy.

Speaker 1 (00:26):

You've got a shoe line for charity.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
Human charity, for the peace, for the kids in the gardens.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
And garden strip. But this is us reading about how
he lives his life because, as I said, he is
in he's ninety three. Warren Buffett eats like a six
year old child. He doesn't need his six year old child.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
He eats like a He is one of the lizard
people that we've heard about.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Maybe he is. This is what he does every morning.
He breakfast at McDonald's. He said, when stocks are down,
I get a two ninety five breakfast. When they're up,
I get a three dollars seventeen one treat yourself. He's
done that every day for fifty four years, so that
means he's had over nineteen thy seven hundred McDonald's breakfasts.

His daily menu five regular cokes, not diet coke, five
really regular cokes, McDonald's sausage and.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Egg I love those sausage and egg things.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Peanut brittle for lunch, ice cream for dinner.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Just ice cream for dinner.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Well, no, he eats probably dinner, but has ice cream
as well. He's not concerned about all this stuff. That's
what's so interesting about him. So they say here exercise,
he says, oh, walk when I have to, But sleep
is his big thing. Eight hours, non negotiable. When they
say diet advice, he said, well, if I'm having two
hundred calories and exercise, I'm three calories ahead. I eat

(01:50):
what I like. So someone here has done the maths.
Two hundred and fifty two grams of sugar day. That's
seven times more than is recommended seven hundred calories a
day from Coca cola. It's no vegetables. He's ninety three
years old. This man is defying biology. That's what They
say his doctors are baffled. Perfect blood work. He reads
five hundred pages a day. He works twelve hours a.

business peace. For he drinks more coca cola than water,
but his mental sharpness is elite, and they're saying it's
amazing because that sugar intake should horrify most people. So
what's going on here? They're saying that he gets eight
hour sleep at night, he has no late dinners, he

(02:37):
has no early meetings, and he says sleep beats diet.
So the experts are saying, what's going on. He isn't
proof they say that junk food is healthy, but he
is proof that health isn't just about diet and exercise.
A lot of these moguls are doing all this biotechnology
to prolong their lives. He's saying it's about something simple.
He loves his work, he has zero stress, he gets

(03:00):
deep sleep, and he lives with childlike game, a childlike joy.
They say it's a mental game, not just a physical.

meaning what well he had that you know the whole

of it, I'm sure, But these people who turn themselves
inside out to sleep in biospheres and all this to
prolong their lives, look at him, gets eight our sleep
at night, eats like a kid. Take that information and
do it with it what you will.
