Warren Buffett's wife Astrid is overheard complaining about a $4 cup of coffee at 'summer camp for billionaires' in Sun Valley, report says


Astrid Buffett, the wife of billionaire investor Warren Buffett, was overheard at Allen & Co's annual event in Sun Valley, Idaho, griping to resort employees about the price of coffee, the New York Post reports.


At the so-called "summer camp for billionaires," 77-year-old Astrid Buffett was heard complaining about having to pay $4 for a cup of coffee, the Post said. Buffett's wife reportedly said she "could get a pound of coffee" for the same price elsewhere.


Warren Buffett is worth about $115 billion and is the seventh-richest person in the world on Bloomberg's Billionaires Index. But he also has been known to be frugal. Bill Gates, a longtime friend of the 92-year-old, once recalled the billionaire pulling out a handful of coupons to pay for a McDonald's meal.


And unlike many billionaires, Buffett's home is relatively understated: He lives in the same one in Omaha that he bought in 1958 for about $31,500.
