Where they got it is irrelevant. But i'll bet Forbes created more than Buffet. Buffet takes temporarily undervalued property and fixes it up or waits it out and then profits. Forbes has built sucessfully on his father's business. JMO, protagoras, your above passage is very anti-Randian of you. If Ayn Rand was alive today, she would be on Buffett's side because of his business acumen.
Remember that Ayn Rand was all business and could care less about social issues. She was an atheist.
You all should be overjoyed about Buffet being on Arnold's team, IMO.

Social issues? You mean like Buffett's support for massive tax and spending increases? Are you saying that Rand would like that too?

Who was Rand and what does she have to do with me?
