On: Why did Warren Buffett invest $6B+ in centuries-ol...

He wouldn't own anything to his name. He would put his assets in an offshore trust.

Yeah, but if I had the kind of money he had, I would build a money bin on a hill and put 3 cubic acres of cash in it. Offshore accounts are just boring in comparison.

That's definitely fun. But not fiscally sound. And you don't become a billionaire by having fun, unfortunately.

I'd much rather to see someone putting crazy ideas into action having money...

Nah, you get to be a billionaire by being smarter than the smarties, tougher than the toughies, and making it on Square.
