His family is getting nothing and he is basically despised by everyone around him except for his shareholders because of his single minded pursuit of increasing his wealth. He's going to die alone and bitter because he never got the #1 spot even for a moment and he tons of obvious tech stocks that would have gotten him there.

>was it all stocks
indirectly and directly, yes
>or he got money from somewhere else too?
in the early days he got a bunch of family members and friends to pool together like 50k, then he liquidated the company once he had enough money to go solo.

The biggest gains are usually attributed to buying GEICO - insurance companies obviously have lots of cash on hand - so he took cash out of GEICO and loaned it to other companies he owned so they could invest in expansion.
In other words he wasn't as passive as he makes it sound when he says "we just buy great companies with great management", especially now that he's teamed up with that Brazilian guy whose name I can't remember: they are now doing a lot more capital redistribution.

Just think of it this way. He lives decades in wealth, can do whatever he wants. only the last month of his life will be suffering before he dies.
Or,
You can suffer your entire life, and the last month somebody is standing and holding your hands while you also go through hell before you die.

I doubt that he has real pleasure from dominating the market
He seems driven by it like some athletes are driven but like them once there carrier is over they have nothin left and maybe they even realize all the time they have wasted
I just think its no use if you have all this freedom just to restrict yourself anyway
Seems like he lifes more or less the same if he had less money and just would work as investment banker or something else
