No, not that it’s any of your business, but his wife Susan had an affair with a tennis coach in Omaha and then moved out on him to San Francisco where she continued to keep a series of “friends”. He was so devastated by her leaving, *she* set him up with the woman that he would be with for 30 years and who became his second wife, Astrid. Although he and Susan remained married so that he could retain his control of Berkshire Hathaway without having to split the value of the estate in a divorce, the arrangement was not a secret and anyone who knew anything about what happened didn’t consider him the adulterer.

All you’ve done is accuse him of being intelligent by taking the time to understand tax law and then made an incorrect presumption of his private life based on half of the facts.

He is a far cry for George Soros. The world, it could be argued convincingly, would be better off without Soros. Warren Buffett is one of the greatest Americans to ever live, despite some of his social views.

He is a parasite on taxpayers backs who asked for a bailout on reinsure after 9/11. He is also a fervent Obama supporter.
