On an aside, it is interesting that a model for AC'ers, fundamentalist protestants (of the life wasn't meant to be easy outlook) and John Galt's wish to be clones, that one of their model or idol, Warren Buffet, in this case, is on record as saying that his success was not attributable to the sweat of his brow, personal exertion or developped skills but to a certain psychological profile (with regard risk aversion) that he has, that would not have been so succesful in any other time but the one in lived in. He thus had the honesty and modesty to attribure his success to luck, and further decided to give most of it away.
This was stated by Buffet in an interview following his examplary donation to the Gates foundation.

Warren Buffet is not a "model" or "idol" for any anarchist I know of, including myself.
I am a much bigger fan of his may-or-may-not-be cousin,
Jimmy.
I'll taking making $70M/year Jimmy's way than a billion a year Warren's way anytime.
