Buffet: Tax the mega-rich

[75th]

Did this article come about from a sushi dinner?

Thats the beauty of this piece: if one were to ignore all those pesky things like facts and statistics (as some people tend to do), Buffet trumps that by applying his personal experience to the entire population.

"I have worked with investors for 60 years" equates to about 60,000 sashimi dinners.

FYI...annual household income of $250k puts you in the top 1% in the u.s...you have a skewed sense of reality.

actually, it's the top 1.9%...still...if you were serious, you're obviously living somewhere out in left field.

oh, i think so too...however, there are a lot of people that aren't aware of the real statistics (even though they are readily available to anyone that knows how to google)...my wife and i were in that rarified air for a couple of years back before kids and changes in career paths, etc...and it was pretty cool...but, you definitely don't need to be there in order to live a damn good/fulfilling/exciting/enjoyable life in this country.

yeah...i kinda don't either...i don't think he ventures far from the coast and, when he does, it's probably at a cruising altitude of 30,000 feet
