Warren Buffett Trusts Rolex To Keep The Time Of His Life

Warren Buffett is a very interesting man. On the one hand, he is extremely simple and un-materialistic–yet in his extremely successful career as an investor with Berkshire-Hathaway, he has managed to squirrel-away more nuts than any other American.

Warren Buffett was once asked what he thought about Rolex and he said he thought Rolex was an amazing brand and that if it was ever for sale he would buy it immediately.

"Success is getting what you want & happiness is wanting what you get." –Warren Buffett

Warren Buffett is pictured below meeting with President Obama in the White House to give him economic advise on how to turn the American economy around.

Warren Buffett is the wealthiest man on earth and Bill Gates is the second wealthiest American. So is there a correlation between Warren being the wealthiest American and the fact that he wears a Rolex? I will let you decide that.

This comes from a recent Bloomberg Online story:

Berkshire has $35 billion in cash and Buffett, the world's richest person, has been looking for places to put it. He's invested in China, Israel and the U.K., complaining that there's a dearth of U.S. investment opportunities for a company as large as Berkshire.

Buffett On Rolex

Warren Buffett is a big fan of Rolex and has been wearing his Rolex Day-Date for many years. Buffett was once asked what he thought about Rolex as a company and if he would ever be interested in purchasing Rolex (even though it is not for sale, since Rolex is owned by the Hans Wilsdorf Trust). Buffett responded by saying: "Luxury watchmakers such as Geneva-based Rolex are great companies. They know my phone number, but they haven't called.''
