If you had the resources to accomplish something great in the
world, what would you do?
Legendary investor Warren Buffett posed this challenge to his
son in 2006, when he announced he was leaving the bulk of his
fortune to philanthropy. So, Howard G. Buffett set out to help the
most vulnerable people on Earth nearly a billion individuals who
lack basic food security. And Howard has given himself a deadline:
forty years to put more than $3 billion to work on this
challenge.
Each of us has about forty chances to accomplish our goals in
life. Howard learned this lesson through his passion for farming:
all farmers can expect to have about forty growing seasons, giving
them just forty chances to improve on every harvest. This lesson
applies to all of us, however, because we all have about forty
productive years to do the best job we can, whatever our passions
may be.
"Forty Chances: Finding Hope in a Hungry World" is a book that
captures Howard s journey. We join him around the world as he seeks
out new approaches to ease the suffering of so many. It is told in
a unique format: forty stories that will provide readers a
compelling look at Howard s lessons learned, ranging from his own
backyard to some of the most difficult and dangerous places on
Earth.
