GO FIGURE WARREN BUFFETT

The USA's second richest man Warren Buffett will be donating $37 billion dollars to Microsoft founder Bill Gates and his wife Melinda to their Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation that helps impoverished people in developing countries with education and health issues.

Buffett is a low profile conservative individual that made his money in the insurance business and investing in stocks. His worth is said to be $44 billion.

Buffett continues to live in a house that he bought in Omaha, Nebraska in 1959 for $31,500. Omaha is not exclusive like Beverly Hills or Marin County, California or any other exclusive area.

Buffett has said that a person should be involved in something they love rather than working for just money. He believes that if you love what you do the money will come. It is known that he will not leave his fortune to his family. He doesn't believe in dynastic wealth. On an Oprah Winfrey TV show his daughter was questioned about the situation. The good news for his offspring is it is said that their father will leave them a billion dollars each. Lets just hope they can get by on that.

Her Top Model TV show is gaining interest as has improved tremendously over its first season. Her good decision making and appeal earns her an $18 million dollar a year salary. The now 33-year-old's net worth is reported to be $140 million.

Banks is also romantically linked with NBA basketball star Chris Webber

JOHN MADDEN SACRIFICED

Did you know that John Madden joined the Fox Network when they gained the rights for NFL football in 1994. He departed in February 2002 for ABC's Monday Night Football.

In doing so he took a $3 million pay cut from $8 million at Fox to $5 million at ABC.

Speculation is that the increased exposure from the popular Monday Night Football telecast would result in additional endorsements. One of the endorsements is his popular football game that has been a top seller for years with a new edition that was recently released. FULL STORY
