built 606 days ago
Extra credit: Buffett and the former Susan Thompson were married from 1952 until her death in 2004. They had three children: Susan (b. 1952), Howard (b. 1954) and Peter (b. 1958)... On 30 August 2006, his 76th birthday, Buffett married Astrid Menks.

On his 76th birthday Buffett married his longtime companion, Astrid Menks, who had lived with him since his wife's departure. Interestingly, it was Susan Buffett who arranged for the two to meet before she left Omaha to pursue her singing career. All three were close, and holiday cards to friends were signed "Warren, Susie and Astrid" (as per Roger Lowenstein's book, Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist). Susan Buffett briefly discussed this relationship in an interview on the Charlie Rose Show shortly before her death, in a rare glimpse into Buffett's personal life.[26]

The outlook for Buffett's personal fortune is no less problematic. His wife is his sole heir, but she is 67 years old and might not outlive him. The Buffetts have three children--Susan, 46; Howard, 44; and Peter, 41. Howard and Susan are directors of Berkshire, but none of the Buffett progeny is involved in the management of the company.

Buffett said his father has not changed much over the years. Warren Buffett lives in the same house in midtown Omaha where he and his wife, Susan, raised their family. The elder Buffett spends his spare time reading and visiting family and friends.
