Ibiza
Chilling! Nothing too crazy, or too way out! Millionaire! Fantastic, it suits me. Starting each week totally relaxed. Ibiza is the place to be. A dip in the pool. James, the personal assistant, runs the villa, serves the cocktails and has the yacht on stand-by. Lunch is eaten on the quarter-deck. The wind blows through the sails, James sets our course and mumbles something about Scotland. What are our plans this week? Surprise, surprise! Invitations aplenty, and the freedom to choose. This evening, we’ll see the sun set over the sea.

Scotland
The need for speed Life is one big party! Befriended Schumi and Porsche at the latest fair. The latest Porsche is out! Top Gear phones Porsche. Porsche phones Schumi. ‘Does Michael know of a co-pilot for a test drive in the Highlands?’ Schumi phones Warren, and here we are! (Friends like these have their uses). Speeding through the Scottish Highlands nose to tail, side-by-side, racing past Michael. Across the finish line at top speed, we head for a celebratory whisky and bagpipe party. In the meantime the Gulfstream Jet’s propellers are at full revs. We sign for the coupé and the hardtop just as we’re about to step onboard. It rains in Ibiza from time to time too!

Glasgow - Amsterdam
On the road again Pack the bags and scarper! James has loaded the Porsches, bagpipes and crates of whisky onto the Jet. As a small favour in return we’re flying Schumi to Munich, where we say our goodbyes over a bite to eat. A brief training session back in the Gulfstream, a quick freshen-up in the jacuzzi, and we’re ready for a relaxing night out in Amsterdam.

Just in the front door of my pad on the beautiful Keizersgracht canal and a DVD lands on the mat. Bond is in the house! Head swiftly to the home cinema with the DVD. As James attends to the minibar we pass judgment on the preview, and my first real supporting role. “Daniel Craig is Bond, but Buffett deserves credit”, declares the producer of the closing TV interview. WOW!
Tuesday
Barbados
High-fliers Time flies when you’re having fun! A stopover in Barbados. Today we’re practising high-altitude relaxation. With the world at your feet there’s only one way to see it all. Skydiving! Flying on the wind for miles. Freedom. Beauty. Speed. Pulling the strings. This is my sport, this is my life!

Cape Canaveral
Zero Gravity Tour The sky is the limit! No way! There are no boundaries which can’t be exceeded. And, this is the absolute latest. The nerves have been getting worse for a while now. Putting a special suit on!? All sorts of physical preparations – a bit of yoga here, a pill there, it’s a great experience! Suspended outside the earth’s atmosphere. Sipping Moët & Chandon at zero gravity! Is it the bubbles or the simulator? The earth is bewitching.

Los Angeles
How to be a millionaire Back home in LA. With weightless legs back on terra firma we prepare for one of the best evenings of the week. My book presentation to the happy few of LA. The book, ‘Become a millionaire by this time next week!’ is a bestseller. The old ‘paper boy to millionaire’ success story, only – I did it my way! There’s a stampede. It’s a raging success. The room is packed with fans and good questions. “Warren? How does it feel now? To be a millionaire?” My answer: “The world is my oyster”, then do the rounds during the after party. It’s getting late, it’s getting light!

Aspen
Powder or snow? Greeting the day a little worse for wear, sorry! This is my day. Helicopter to Aspen. Summer, winter, autumn or spring! Nothing beats fresh snow. James drops us at the highest, most virginal spot in Aspen. Thick snow, skidoos, and great company. Skiing, snowboarding, whatever – DOWNHILL we go!
Thursday
New York
Dinner in the sky Glass of wine!? Just for a change we’ve moved the après ski to NY. With the powdery snow still in our hair we await culinary delights. A bite to eat 100m up, with great views over the Big Apple. Drink in hand. Fat cigar. We watch the sun go down over the best skyline in the world; networking whilst merry! Fabulous!
Friday
Maldives
Golf at last... In the blink of an eye‌The Gulfstream powers on. Without having lifted a finger we’ve just about circumnavigated the globe in under a week; feels great! The Maldives are in sight. The Buffett-resort is prepared for the launch of our new fashion line. Hustle and bustle as catwalk builders, models and the press arrive. James has everything in hand. In the meantime we work on our golf handicap and shoot our best rounds on the private golf course. It promises to be a successful evening yet again!

Let the show begin... A quick run through with James, and onto the catwalk. The reception is heart-warming. My speech is short and to the point. I present you Warren! Robbie sings ‘Let me entertain you’. Heidi steals the show. A real feast for the eye. The fireworks lead us to the finale! Launch across 5 global cities! Fantastic! It just keeps on coming....

Saturday
Ibiza
Cruising... Anyhow! With the models still on my mind, we arrive back home on my beloved island. James is pouring the first cocktail when my mobile rings; “Warren? Brad here, are you ready?” The Ibiza Challenge! Head-to-head with my neighbor for a laugh and for the hell of it; what can you do? And I was well and truly sucked in. Phew, after 10 minutes my kidneys are where my liver should be, and the boat hasn’t even reached its max speed. “Sorry, Brad! This ain’t funny anymore!” Buffett wins the Ibiza Challenge! Of course! But: “Next time, just polo!”
Saturday evening
Ibiza
At the beach... All good things must come to an end. For this week anyway! Luckily here are the friends who’ve just flown in. There’s nothing better than an evening BBQ and a sultry party, with the sun going down on Ibiza. Friendship is priceless – the real deal…
