The last & final lunch auction for a New York private steak lunch with legendary investor and Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Warren Buffet was won by a $19 million ($19,000,100) winning bid, who had chose to remain anonymous.  The bid started on 12th June 2022 at $25,000, with the winner to dine with Warren Buffett at the Smith & Wollensky Steakhouse in New York City (United States).  GLIDE and eBay’s annual Power of One Charity Auction Lunch since its launch in 2000, had raised more than $53 million to support GLIDE’s transformative programs and services that lift people out of poverty, hunger, and homelessness, and advance equity through systems change.  The last auction to dine with Warren Buffett took place in 2019 with a winning bid of $4.5 million ($4,567,888), won by crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun. Warren Buffett: “It’s been nothing but good … … I’ve met a lot of interesting people from all over the world. The one universal characteristic is that they feel the money is going to be put to very good uses.”  The grand finale Power of One Charity Auction Lunch will take place at a mutually beneficial date and time in the coming months. As host of the annual Power of One Charity Auction Lunch, Alan Stillman, founder of Smith & Wollensky, has generously donated tens of thousands of dollars to the event. The restaurant has been called “the quintessential New York steakhouse” by Gourmet Magazine and “the steakhouse to end all arguments” by The New York Times.
