Billionaire investor Warren Buffett has made his first trip to India as he seeks investment opportunities in Asia.

"India is a logical place to look, so I hope I spend some money here," he said on the latest stop of an Asia trip that took him to Korea earlier in the week.

The 80-year-old was at India's hi-tech capital of Bangalore, visiting the office of an Israeli toolmaking firm in which he owns a majority stake.

His investment fund Berkshire Hathaway has $38bn (£23bn) in cash.
Criticising regulations

Mr Buffett also planned to meet wealthy Indian businessmen, to convince them to join him in giving half their wealth to charity.

"I don't consider India as an emerging market," he said. "I consider India as a very big market. We continue to look at large countries like India."

He also played down the chances of his entering India's well-established technology sector, saying he would focus on industries that he had expertise in, such as soft drinks and chewing gum.

The so-called Sage of Omaha agreed earlier this month to act as an agent for Indian insurance firm Bajaj Allianz.

He criticised Indian regulations that limit foreign investments in the insurance sector to a 26% minority stake.

Mr Buffett will later meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, although it is not clear what the agenda of the meeting will be

The 17 year old rich

Eliza Kruger: Mark Sanchez’s 17 Year Old Rich Lover!
Posted by Tim Smith on February 9, 2011 at 5:26 pm0 Comment
Eilza Kruger is now known by the world as the 17-year-old who hooked up with Mark Sanchez.
Eliza Kruger is now known as the 17-year-old teenage girl who hooked up with Mark Sanchez. Apparently while clubbing in Manhattan, Kruger met Sanchez and the two hit it off. Sanchez (24-years-old) took Kruger back to his Jersey pad and they hooked up. Eliza Kruger is no typical teen, her parents are extremely wealthy and I am willing to bet all of this bad press is not good for them.
You might ask yourself why a 17-year-old (Eliza Kruger) was out clubbing in Manhattan but who cares. Apparently Mark Sanchez has not broken any laws as Kruger is very much legal to hook up with. I am not saying it’s not morally wrong but it is perfectly legal. If Kruger wants to brag via Facebook that she hooked up with the New York Jets star QB then so be it. Her parents should have raised her a little bit better than that to be honest. I won’t be the one to judge though; she had a wonderful time and can now say she landed a star in the NFL.
I put up a poll earlier on the whole Mark Sanchez – Eliza Kruger hookup, check it out here.
