Opulence is celebrating luxury! Sounds paradoxical but quite a few global celebrities are now followed for their simple and minimal lifestyle. Despite having huge wealth under their belt, they have made minimalism their USP. From traveling in public transport to giving away most of their fortune, here is how some celebrities are living their best life as a minimalist.
What is Minimalism?
Minimalism, simply put, is living with minimum possible means. A minimalist prefers to keep it basic with less material things. Anyone who likes to keep things very simple can be called a Minimalist.
Warren Buffet
Warren Buffet is regarded as one of the most generous philanthropists in the world. Buffett started investing in the stock market at the age of 11. He still lives in a modest home in Omaha, Nebraska, which he bought for $31,500 in 1958. In fact, in one of his interviews, Buffet said that he never had any desire to have multiple houses and all kinds of things and multiple cars.
Buffet also doesn't seem to have much interest in spending on technology, particularly not when it comes to buying a phone. He uses a flip phone instead of a smartphone.
The 90-year-old has decided to give away nearly all his fortune to philanthropic causes by the time he dies.
He donated $2.9 billion worth of stock to nonprofit groups this year in July.
