Warren Buffett Charity Lunch Climbs to $420,600 in Auction

Warren Buffett : “I was suspicious when I heard my wife raving about this place in San Francisco,”
“What I witnessed was an institution and an individual that really gave up on nobody. They took the people that the rest of the world had forgotten, people who’d given up on themselves, and they felt that every human being had a potential.” Warren Buffett, 81, said in a video posted on the auction website.
