Warren Buffett Makes $15 A Second

April 7, 2011 By 8 Comments

Never let it be said that Warren Buffett does not know how to make money. Warren Buffett states that his wise investment in Goldman Sachs during the financial crisis is making him $15 a second! That is incredible!

Buffett’s preferred stock investment amounts to

  • $900 a minute
  • $54,000 an hour
  • $1,296,000 a day

The good times will be coming to and end however as Goldman Sachs will be repaying Buffett his $5 billion dollar investment. Don’t feel bad for Buffett as he will receive a 10 percent premium on his investment. Buffet will get a $125 million dollar dividend payment and $24 million dollars in accelerated dividends.
