    A lot of negativity here on Buffett. I doubt any mega-billionaire is a total saint, but by comparison Warren seems like a guy who tried to do good in the world.

    We should hope for fewer billionaires, but as long as we have them, we should hope for more Warrens.

      This is an incredibly sad perspective to have. We have to have higher standards than this, man.
