Let's have a thought experiment.

Suppose you had a copy of every 1040 Buffet ever filed, in his life.

Suppose further, his maximum net worth occurred in 2017, and just suppose it was about $90 Billion.

And suppose that you totaled ALL GROSS INCOME reported on every tax return Buffet had filed in his life.

How much gross income do you reckon would have been reported in all those years of tax returns?
