August 5, 2001, on How to Become As Rich As Bill Gates:
If my motive for supporting anti-trust action against MS is envy of Bill's billions, why do I admire so much the multi-billionaire who runs Berkshire Hathaway as chairman? (http://www.BerkshireHathaway.com) He's a guy who started with a few *thousand* bucks (unlike Bill), who feels that our economic & tax systems overly favor the wealthy (unlike Bill) -- and who says so in public and in his letters to shareholders (unlike Bill). He's also a witty writer (unlike Bill): take a look at the Owners' Manual and those letters: http://www.berkshirehathaway.com/letters/letters.html .
