Warren Buffett turns 94: The billionaire who thrives on Coca-Cola, McDonald's, and hot fudge sundaes

As Buffett celebrates his 94th birthday, his unconventional diet and daily routines continue to fascinate and inspire

Warren Buffett, the legendary investor and chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, celebrates his 94th birthday today, marking another milestone in a life filled with remarkable achievements. 

With a net worth exceeding $148 billion, Buffett remains one of the most successful investors of all time, having made his first stock purchase at just 11 years old in Omaha, Nebraska.

Despite leading a global conglomerate and becoming the seventh richest person on the planet, Buffett’s daily habits are anything but typical for someone of his stature. 

Famously known for his love of "Utz" potato sticks and Coca-Cola, Buffett once quipped, "I eat like a six-year-old," revealing that he consumes five 12-ounce cans of Coca-Cola daily. 

His love for fast food is also well-documented, with the billionaire frequently stopping at McDonald’s for breakfast and indulging in Dairy Queen’s chili-cheese dogs and ice cream sundaes for lunch.

Yet, despite his unconventional diet, Buffett maintains his vitality through a series of daily habits that include getting eight hours of sleep, playing Bridge for mental sharpness, and keeping a light schedule. 

He spends five to six hours a day reading and values loving relationships as the true measure of success in life.

Buffett’s secret to longevity may not lie in his diet, but in his approach to life—doing what he loves and savoring each moment. 

As he once said, "Happiness makes an enormous amount of difference…in terms of longevity. I’m happier when I’m eating hot fudge sundaes or drinking Coke."
