The key to his happiness is not money

Berkshire Hathaway Billions Warren Buffett has a lot to be happy about. He is currently the fourth richest person in the world, with a net worth of $ 90.1 billion.

But Buffett says his financial success is not the root of his happiness – that is, he enjoys his work and loved ones.

"I can't buy time, I can't buy love, but I can do something else with money, pretty much. And why do I stand up every day and jump out of bed and I'm excited about 88? It's because I love what I do and love the people I do with it, "Buffett recently told the Financial Times.

"I have 25 people out here [at Berkshire]. We're going to baseball games together. They are trying to make my life good, I'm trying to make his life good," Buffett said.

"I have a vacation every day. If there was anything else I wanted to go, I would go there."

Hopefully, Buffett formerly told CNBC's "Squawk Box" who rely on money to make you happy doesn't work and says even $ 1[ads1] million isn't going to make you happy, it's not gonna happen because then your happiness will disappear when you look around and see people with $ 2 million said.

In fact, Buffett said, even though he was just out of school with only $ 10,000, he wasn't unhappy because "I had a lot of fun."

And that's still true today. "This is the entertainment palace here," he told FT about his home on Berkshire Hathaway. "I have more fun here than I think some 88-year-olds have almost in the world."
