Having flown the corporate jet of one of these old investors I can tell you I highly doubt he'd make a swing for the fences. Guys like Buffet and the gentleman I worked for figured out a formula for success a long time ago and they tend to stick to it. For them it's not about amassing money. My guess is Buffett spent his entire life building and reinforcing his reputation, the last thing he wants to do is tarnish it with a swing for the fence.
