I have been living on my own and supporting myself since 17. I was debt free with a nice home at 45, all on HARD work. I live by my rules, but don't judge the choices of others. I am very generous to community needs, and to friends that are in need. I am a coupon hound, amazing how much money you can save with 2 minutes and Google.
I'm not advocating becoming a mindless spending machine, just suggesting you should ask yourself why you are investing? Is it just a game? Do you have a gambling additiction (again, not judging)? Are you trying to build wealth? Assuming you are successful, what will you do with it?
Why does Warren live the way he does? Honestly I don't care, it's his life, his choice. I don't subscribe to deities, and WB is not even in that class.
You can't shame anyone for enjoying some success, and helping to keep the economy going. How else will others earn a living?
An honest GLTA, except for the schoolyard bullies. Some of whom have boasted several times about buying in at the bottom. To which I say, good for you, but leave others with a different approach alone.
