    　　When 7-year-old Warren Buffet said “ I will be the richest man one day”, his friends made fun of his “daydreaming”．But ever since then the little boy has set about learning how to make money, selling drinks, delivering newspapers and buying stocks．He had already earned ＄ 9,000(equal to ＄ 90,000 today)by the time he graduated from high school and became a millionaire at 32．

    　　And this month the 77-year- old, who earned his fortune by making a lot of great investment in the stock market, made his childhood dream come true．With a fortune of ＄ 62billion, Buffet has risen to be the world’s richest man according to Forbes Magazine．

    　　Born in 1930, Buffet, the only son of a stockbroker, started on achieving his billion-dollar dream at an early age and was always ready to think outside the box to develop his business．At 8 he went to golf courses collecting and selling used balls．

    　　At 11 when he sold soda pop door to door with a friend, the pair collected lids on the streets to judge which flavor was the most popular．

    　　As a paper boy during high school, Buffet delivered two rival(竞争对手的)papers, so that even when customers canceled one of the subscriptions, he could still make a profit from the other．With his paper delivery savings, Buffet bought 162,000 square meters of farmland and collect rent．

    　　Young Buffet stepped into the stock market at 11 but earned only ＄ 5．The experience taught him one of the virtues(品质)in investing：patience．

    　　After graduating from university, Buffet started his venture with stocks with his childhood earnings and money from friends．He researched the stocks and just bought those of solid companies that were undervalued and inexpensive at the time．By sticking to companies such as American Express and Coca-cola, Buffet has become rich．

    　　“Learning is important to Buffet’s success．He is a learning machine who can spend his entire day reading．He keeps learning, from books, street smarts and investigation, from both success and failure．In this way, he finally over achieved his aptitude(才能)，” said Charlie Munger, his long-time business partner．

    Dear Customers，

    I love slipping into a comfortable chair for a long read--as I relax into the chair，I also relax into the author's word，stories and ideas．The physical book is so elegant that it disappears into the background，and what remains is the author's world．

    Today，we at Amazon are excited to announce Mindle，a wireless，portable reading device with instant access to more than 90,000 books，magazines，and newspapers．

    We've been working on Mindle for more than three years．Our top design objective was for Mindle to disappear in your hands--to get out of the way--so you can enjoy your reading．We also wanted to go beyond the physical book．Mindle is wireless，so whether you're lying in bed or riding a train，you can think of a book，and have it in less than 60 seconds．No computer is needed--you do your reading directly from the device．

    We chose the same wireless technology used in advanced mobile phones．But unlike phones there are no monthly wireless bills，no service or data plans，and no yearly contracts．There is no software to install．We want you to get lost in your reading and not in the technology．

    Mindle uses a new kind of display called electronic paper．Sharp and natural with no strong light，reading on Mindle is nothing like reading from a computer screen．Mindle weighs only 10.3 ounces--less than a paperback--but can carry two hundred books．

    Enjoy learning about Mindle and many thanks!
