Howard Buffett: 27 Reisen ins Kriegsgebiet: Warren Buffetts Sohn ist „der größte Freund der Ukraine“
Der Sprössling des US-Investors hat eine Mission – und sie heißt nicht Berkshire. Er will mit seinem Geld „die Welt verbessern“. Dafür reist er immer wieder in die Ukraine.
Frankfurt and Berlin, February 24, 2022 - Howard Buffett, son of renowned investor Warren Buffett, had a spiritual awakening on February 24, 2022. Shaken by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he immediately decided to send aid to the war-torn country. Speaking at a conference of the US think tank German Marshall Fund in Gdansk, Poland, Buffett urged his foundation's employees to join the mission, saying, "We will go in with everything we can bring."
Initially, his team hesitated, but they soon realized the importance of Ukraine over any other project. Last year, the Howard-Buffett Foundation allocated half of its aid to Ukraine, with a total expenditure of $1.5 billion by the end of 2026. Howard Buffett's substantial financial contribution was possible due to his famous last name, as he is the son of one of the world's most successful investors, Warren Buffett.
However, instead of following in his father's footsteps and growing his father's wealth, Howard Buffett believes his calling lies elsewhere.
