Warren Buffett has remained successful as the leader of his profitable company for more than 40 years. He has surely become very influential to many people, but has remained humble in spite of his great wealth and success. He started The Giving Pledge and has pledged to give away at least half of his wealth over the course of his life. He invites other billionaires to do the same. He stated that he will leave his children only enough wealth “so that they will feel they could do anything, but not so much they would feel like doing nothing.” These rules are worth considering for a successful professional and personal life.
