America's No. 2 billionaire himself (according to "Forbes"), Warren Buffett, will take the highest bidder and up to seven of that person's friends to lunch next year in New York. The proceeds go to a charity for the hungry. A trip to the buffet with Buffett is expected to fetch up to $25,000, but at least there's a carrot to go with all that lettuce: The highest bidder will be able to feast on Buffett's investing advice -- which is good, because Buffett is known as a "hot dogs and Coke" kind of billionaire.
