Reason being, well, I don't know too.
He walks to his desk, which he has used for over 50 years.
Once in the office, much of the time he spends reading.
He reads five newspapers every morning,
starting with his favorite, Omaha World Herald,
a company he bought back in 2011.
Asked about his obsession with reading,
he said, read 500 pages like this every day.
That's how knowledge works.
It builds up, like compound interest.
All of you can do it,
but I guarantee not many of you will do it.
Warren reads and reads.
He barely sends or receives email.
Neither does he spend time looking at his phone.
He says reading helps him avoid impulsive decisions in business.
His reading materials are separated impressively,
financial statements, newspapers and books.
His system completely shuts down
except for his reading instincts.
He switches off television, doors and windows
and gets in the zone.
Some of the books he credits his success to include
The Wealth of Nation by Adam Smith,
The Intelligent Investor and Security Analysis
both by Benjamin Graham.
Warren is not a big fan boardroom meeting either.
Give him two options when at the office.
First he'd choose reading.
The final option would be, guess what, reading.
Bill Gates may be his best friend,
socially, financially and economically,
but Warren has a sad story to tell about Microsoft.
He has only sent one email in his life,
which apparently ended up in federal court.
Warren in 1997 responded to an email from Jeff Rakes,
an executive at Microsoft.
His response was published in a Wall Street Journal article,
marking the end of him sending emails at work.
As stated above,
the staunch believer of long-term investment
doesn't enjoy meetings at work,
and if he has to attend,
it better be very brief and straight to agendas.
He tags along with his favourite snacks in the meetings,
candies and chocolate walnut fudge.
After work routine
After a busy day of reading
and analysing stock market behaviours,
the legendary investment icon
drives his old Cadillac DTS back home.
Mr Buffett is a man who loves to play,
and he is an avid bridge player.
He enjoys playing this card game
with his billionaire buddy Bill Gates.
It is a game you can enjoy
when you are in your 90s,
and you are seeing a different intellectual challenge
every seven minutes.
It is the best exercise there is for the brain,
he said.
There you have it.
If you thought it's just an ordinary game,
then you just got damned.
It is a mind cracker
limited for critical thinkers only.
Warren Buffett spends about 12 hours a week
playing this game he really loves.
In fact,
he once sponsored a bridge competition in 2006,
and named it Buffett Cup.
The jewel of Omaha adores this game so much
that he once cheekily quoted,
if I'm playing a bridge,
and a naked woman walks by,
I don't even see her.
Another billionaire-like hobby
Warren subscribes to
is playing ukulele.
In his free time away from work,
the business magnate
likes pulling the strings
of this musical instrument.
His relationship with ukulele
started way back on somewhat shaky grounds.
A woman he once had a crush on as a teen
was dating a guy who owned a ukulele,
so Warren thought it wise
to learn the skills of playing
and acquire his own.
Unfortunately,
the lady ended up snubbing Buffett
to stay with his guy.
We all know she missed a chance of a lifetime,
but I guess it is true.
Choices have consequences.
Thanks to her,
the man behind many companies' success
is a skilled player
of this lute family instrument.
Sometimes Buffett performs at meetings,
during interviews,
and in conventions.
Warren Buffett is not quite
the money-spender type of billionaire.
Typical of any investor,
his money barely sees the light of day
for luxurious tweets.
He'd rather donate to charity
than buy a fleet of expensive cars
and spend on magnificent mega mansions.
I mean, he is that guy.
He also enjoys his golf,
but not in a Porsche golf club.
I can be a member of every golf club
that I want to be a member of,
but I'd rather be playing golf here
with people I like
than at the fanciest golf course in the world,
he told Q&A.
Come to think of it,
Buffett's most expensive venture
has to be the private jet
he bought for the sake
of constant business travels.
A dedicated lifelong fan
of Nebraska football,
Warren attends matches
when he is in a position to.
He loves this sport so much
that he invented a competition
amongst his employees back in 2014.
He challenges them
to guess all 16 teams
that would participate
in the NCAA March Madness.
And for anyone who gets it right,
he promises to pay $1 million yearly
for the rest of his or her life.
That's now what we call a baller move.
Unfortunately,
no one has even come close
to winning the contest
in its six years' existence.
The last day of the week that is Sunday,
the business magnate
developed quite a thoughtful hobby.
He treats a dozen of kids
to an ice cream party at Dairy Queen,
which is part of his
attractive investment network.
Most of these kids
are his grandchildren and their friends.
He, however,
complains that immediately
after getting their orders,
the kids spend time
sticking their heads to the phones.
Warren loves his sleep.
After a long day of playing with figures,
he retires to bed daily at 10.45 p.m.
and follows that bedtime routine
religiously,
a decent sleep for eight hours.
That is how the Nebraska native
legendary investor spends his time,
both at work and at home.
Final thoughts.
Like everybody else,
Warren Buffett
has had several setbacks in life,
both as a business mogul
and as an ordinary man.
But his way of life
is a blueprint to emulate
for people seeking
to reach greater heights,
from being rejected
to Harvard Business School,
to his father-in-law
predicting he would fail
in his business quest.
Warren teaches us
the modesty and self-drive
that most people in business lack.
His business acumen
makes it valuable
to all the companies
he has toiled to build.
The biggest lesson
that can be learned
from this godfather of business
is patience.
It is no doubt
that that patience
is not the ability to wait,
but how you act
while you're waiting.
