Once, in an interview with the media, Buffett mentioned his "modest" house, saying that when he started from scratch, this house was his most valuable asset.“It’s warm in the winter and cool in the summer, and I couldn’t imagine a nicer house. My family and I have enjoyed decades of great times here, and many more to come.”

Buffett once owned a vacation home in Laguna Beach.This 3100 sq. ft. home has 4 bedrooms + 4 bathrooms, nestled in a private community on Pacific Coast Highway, but for a billionaire, it's still pretty ordinary.

Later, Buffett sold the house and said,"Hopefully this family will have as much fun with this as we did as a family."

Decades have passed, even though he has already made a fortune, Buffett only renovated the house, confirming what he once said: "Life is not just about material enjoyment. Some of my friends bought hundreds or even thousands of luxury houses.But it gives people a feeling of possession by property, not the other way around."

I don’t know the homes of these two rich people.

Which one do you prefer?

Maybe,

None of us will be able to own a mansion worth hundreds of millions in our lifetime.

But we can have the same style as the richest man, or even more

Companionship and love from family and friends
