Warren Buffett

16. Warren Buffett

Although Buffett is best known for being one of the wealthiest men on the planet, you might also remember that time he announced he has prostate cancer. Buffett is an American business magnate, philanthropist, and the most successful investor in the world. He is also the chairman, CEO, and largest shareholder of Berkshire Hathaway.

But not even all of his wealth can prevent something as horrible as cancer. Buffett revealed to other Berkshire Hathaway shareholders in 2012 that he has early stage prostate cancer and stressed it isn’t life-threatening or even debilitating in any way. Despite the good news, it’s still a burden one has to live with. Moreover, at the age of 85, prostate cancer is not something you want to deal with.
