The Billionaires are finally talking!

Sure, talking about the 8 billion dollars that Warren Buffet just made . Dear Warren, just surpassed Bill Gates, whose wealth shrank to 55.5 billion dollars..he lost a paltry $1.5 billion.

The Oracle of Omaha as Mr. Buffet is affectionately called, just raised his fortune to $58 billion dollars. The biggest "loser" was Sheldon Adelson who owns casinos in Vegas, and Shanghai..a place I want to visit along with Dubai.

Every year or so, Mr. Buffet , frontman for Bershire-Hathaway, hosts an investment retreat which back in the 90's cost $2,000.00 to attend.

My friend Barbara Robinson an attorney and former columnist for the Las Vegas Review Journal went one year, and after that no more civic volunteering for her..she was set on really acquiring wealth.

I hear you Barbara, there comes a point when you have to get serious about your finances, and this is the time for me. I have always wanted to dabble in the stock market and now is as good a time as I have seen.

Even though I am more committed to helping humanity than accumulating wealth, I am just at that time in my life, where they don't have to be mutually exclusive.
