Thus far, it is no better than mine, but then again he is much older and well known, and therefore much more impressive.

Wrongo. Otherwise you would be as wealthy as Buffet. Buffet started with 10K, which he earned, and then went from there (lest anyone think he started with much bigger $. True, at one fairly early point he got friends to invest venture capital with his new firm, but he still started small. While your annual % increases may currently be on a par with some of his annual % increases...the key is Buffet kept the same % increases with very large sums of money.

Not trying to be insulting, but it's simply incorrect to say you have matched Buffet, but "he is much older and well known, and therefore much more impressive". That's ludicrous. On the other hand, if your net worth is about the same as Buffet's then you have my most sincere apologies for making a fool out of myself.
