Warren Buffett, one of the world's most iconic business figures and widely known as the "Oracle of Omaha," turns 96 today. It is his first birthday since he stepped down as chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway after six decades at the helm.
Buffett is no longer Berkshire's CEO, but remains chairman of the board and continues to be involved in the company. He has also continued to make major investment decisions, including building what is now a $36.6 billion stake in Google's parent company, Alphabet, in recent quarters.
