Warren Buffett Biography
Warren Edward Buffett was born August 30th, 1930, to Howard and Leila Buffett, in Omaha, Nebraska. Warren's parents met while working on the school paper at the University of Nebraska, but when Warren, the middle child of the Buffetts' three, was born, Howard was a stockbroker turned US Congressman.
A young Buffett was always fascinated by numbers and always had a keen eye for business, as seen in his business ventures as a child; he sold soda pop door-to-door, sold tip sheets for horseracing, worked at his grandfather's grocery store (his family comes from a line of grocers), and impressed his friends by knowing the population of numerous US cities by heart.
a billionaire in the making
By age 11, Buffett had purchased his first stock at his father's brokerage -- three shares of Cities Service Preferred -- at $38 a share. Even at age 11, he wasn't too young to learn that patience is a virtue, and could have made the difference between his $5 profit (from selling too early) to hundreds more, after the stock soon rose to $200.
