this billionaire doesnt even have a (schofer???). he drives himself around in a 2006 (Cadillac卡迪拉克) DTS recently purchased (after he recently auction off his old Lincon town car), famous (for its Thrifty勤俭) licence plate. -"you (are not the one) to accumulate a lot of things?" -"no,most the (toys are pain in the neck),i mean (if I have) a boat, you know (I would have a crew of 60, there would be, somebody would be stealing, somebody would be sleeping with each other, all kinds of things) would be going on i (wouldn't) care about much easier (if my friends have boats) right?" -"but what's your (indulgent)?" -"when you know,if i get one of (those big screen) TVs, watch CNBC,(beyond that),to watch (Nebraska) play a good football game, and i (sitting there eating) popcorn and i mean, wear (sweat suit), (I'm) enjoying life." -"you are happy." -"i'm happy"

-(growing up here was like to have small town boy childhood?) -"yeah, i mean,you play baseball in the street -(every member of the Buffett family is going to public school) - (I still see some kids that I go to grade school periodically ) - so you do know, there's a (sense of community) living here." -"it's home." -"yeah, it's home. -that's (where Alexander Payne grew up in that house, the film About Schmidt这是一部电影) - (About Schmidt is about an aging Omaha insurance saleman named Warren, yach, actually if you remember."

i know what i enjoy, it doesn't (tie) in many ways, it doesnt (tie in) how much money (you spend),
i mean (your standard of living doesn't equal to your cost of living).
my daughter (lives) about 2 blocks away from there."
Buffett is comfortable here in the Omaha,in part,because people will (leave him) alone
with the exception of at random (a fan or two).
-"somebody want to say hi"
-"oh,yeah"
-"hi,how are you,this is the first time i've met a billionaire."
-"(there) is always the first.(总有第一次的)"
-"oh,yeach,lucky (me)."
-"take care."
this billionaire doesnt even have a (schofer???).
he drives himself around in a 2006 (Cadillac卡迪拉克) DTS recently purchased (after he recently auction off
his old Lincon town car), famous (for its Thrifty勤俭) licence plate.
-"you (are not the one) to accumulate a lot of things?"
-"no,most the (toys are pain in the neck),i mean (if I have) a boat,
you know (I would have a crew of 60, there would be, somebody would be stealing,
somebody would be sleeping with each other, all kinds of things)
would be going on i (wouldn't) care about much easier (if my friends have boats) right?"
-"but what's your (indulgent)?"
-"when you know,if i get one of (those big screen) TVs,
watch CNBC,(beyond that),to watch (Nebraska) play a good football game,
and i (sitting there eating) popcorn and i mean,
wear (sweat suit), (I'm) enjoying life."
-"you are happy."
-"i'm happy"
-"a man of simple means"
-"then i'm (a lot) happier than if (I am managing a huge crew of employee, keeping up greens keepers,
you know, vast estate, boats),i mean,i'm not knocking out anybody like that,that's fine,
but i know what i like. but i like watching Nebraska beating Texas which they didn't do last week."
it's really no surprise then that american's most prominent investor choose to live far from the nation's money
(elite) in New York,Los Angeles,Chicago,Miami,the reason is critical to his success.
-"Welcome to Omaha!"
-"that's it."
-"and you never left here?"
-except when (my dad was in congress, and when I took job in new york for couple years???)"
-"do you think staying in Omaha has made you a better investor?"
-"(probably, yeah, when I was in New York I had a hundred ideas whispering by ear every day, it was over stimulation)
(truth is I need one good idea a year, so i think i can think better out of here, less distraction)."
"(somewhere between 500 and 3 billion dollars)..."Mike Feihei(???) (is the mere市长) of Omaha,he knows Buffett for25 years.
-"he is comfortable here,he knows the city,he knows the people here,he has relationships here,
（both） business (and personal) relationships, so i think he is more happy be right in Omaha,
i mean he lives the same house for long i can remember,
he is not the gay who moves around very easy."
(Afdaph Demordan???) is a professor at NYU（纽约大学） stern school business,
he feels Buffett's success is direct result of the living in （Nebraska）.
-"i think what (Warren) Buffett (enbodies is the importance of thinking for yourself),
not letting other advices, other experts tell you what the right stock to invest
because they are coming from a very different places than you are.
and i think,being in Omaha might give the advantage because you don't have the constant exposure to what
the rest of the world (thinks) you have in the New York."
-(growing up here was like to have small town boy childhood?)
-"yeah, i mean,you play baseball in the street
-(every member of the Buffett family is going to public school)
- (I still see some kids that I go to grade school periodically )
- so you do know, there's a (sense of community) living here."
-"it's home."
-"yeah, it's home.
-that's (where Alexander Payne grew up in that house, the film About Schmidt这是一部电影)
- (About Schmidt is about an aging Omaha insurance saleman named Warren, yach, actually if you remember."
(电影中的对话，。。。Warren Schmidt,Omaha)
(-there is coming my house where the yellow blinker is, they are re-roofing 重扑房顶 it on the left here)
-"and you always stayed in (this house, how many years?)"
-"i've been in that house now for 48 years,
- i paid 31500 dollars to buy that,it's wonderful, man"
-"so you 've never wanted to be big CEO type (mansion豪宅)"
-"i've got everything i (need)."
-"you've got the all"
-"i've got the everything i need."

hehe，收获多多少少肯定会有的，不过有些对话，我怎么听都没有听出来，只好半听半猜，就如电影的那个片断，讲的真的是有点快．．．
