Well one consolation is whatever guys like Buffett accumulate they like ourselves take absolutly nothing with them. So it is just a temporary gathering of the marbles in reality.

It still is and always probably will be in poor taste to flaunt wealth. So is living far above your sensible means. Buffett deserves a lot of credit for acting sensibly as well in these regards as far as I have observed.

Another thing that has been very noticeable as well is the guy appears to be fundementally honest. This to me is almost a rariety at those financial levels. His venture into management on wall street was a real eye opener as well. Perhaps even a shock to himself.
