warren buffett - has got a good grip of what businesses have good long term longevity
"we're here to pitch an idea to you Mr Buffett. It's for a revolutionary new way of dining in which the food is all laid out on tables at one end of the room. Eaters will help themselves to a plate and cutlery and move along the table, helping themselves to portions of the food stored on them. We're looking for £10000 to design some hotplates and for that we're offering 20% of the business and the chance to have it named after you..."

And that's how it actually happened.

I think he was just taking the token ugly woman constraint a bit too far!

despite being a close friend of gates, he never invested in the dot com boom
I call the bordocks alert.

He was a major investor in the company I used to work for.

It could well be argued that they were part of the dot com "market". Well, the company suffered in the dot com crash with shares going from $133 to now something like $2/$3.
