作为全球顶尖的投资家，今年84岁的巴菲特每天是如何精神抖擞地起床，带着无限的精力面对这个世界的？
“I’m one quarter Coca-Cola,” Warren Buffett says.
巴菲特曾说：“可口可乐占了我的四分之一。”
When he told me this in a phone call yesterday (we were talking about the death of his friend, former), I assumed he was talking about his stock portfolio.
当他昨天在电话里说起这番话时（我们正在谈论他刚刚过世的一位朋友），我还以为他说的是自己的投资组合。
No, Buffett explained, “If I eat 2700 calories a day, a quarter of that is Coca-Cola. I drink at least five 12-ounce servings. I do it everyday.”
巴菲特解释道：“如果我每天吃2700卡路里，其中有四分之一是可口可乐。我每天喝至少五罐12盎司的可乐，每天都是这样。”
Perhaps only a man who owns $16 billion in Coca-Cola stock—9% of Coke, through his company, Berkshire Hathaway—would maintain such an odd daily diet. One 12-ounce can of Coke contains 140 calories. Typically, Buffett says, “I have three Cokes during the day and two at night.”
大概只有他这样一个持有160亿可口可乐股票（该公司9%的股权）的投资人，才会保持如此奇特的日常饮食习惯。一罐12盎司的可口可乐含有140卡路里的热量。巴菲特说，一般情况下，“我每天白天喝三罐，晚上喝两罐。”
When he’s at his desk at Berkshire Hathaway headquarters in Omaha, he drinks regular Coke; at home, he treats himself to Cherry Coke.
在伯克希尔哈撒韦公司总部大楼的办公室时，他喝的是普通的可口可乐；在家则喝樱桃味的可口可乐。
“I’ll have one at breakfast,” he explains, noting that he loves to drink Coke with potato sticks. What brand of potato sticks? “I have a can right here,” he says. “U-T-Z” Utz is a Hanover, Pennsylvania-based snack maker. Buffett says that he’s talked to Utz management about potentially buying the company.
他解释道：“我早餐时会喝一罐，”并表示他喜欢配上薯条吃。哪个品牌的薯条？他说：“我手头上就有一罐UTZ薯条。”UTZ是一家位于宾州汉诺威市的零食公司。巴菲特说，他曾和UTZ的管理层商谈过收购这家公司的可能性。
Investors in Berkshire Hathaway may feel relieved that the CEO isn’t addicted to Utz Potato Stix at every breakfast. “This morning, I had a bowl of chocolate chip ice cream,” Buffett says.
令公司投资人感到欣慰的是，巴菲特并非每顿早餐都对UTZ的薯条上瘾。他说：“今天早上，我吃了一碗巧克力冰淇淋。”
Asked to explain the high-sugar, high-salt diet that has somehow enabled him to remain seemingly healthy, Buffett replies: “I checked the actuarial tables, and the lowest death rate is among six-year-olds. So I decided to eat like a six-year-old.” The octogenarian adds, “It’s the safest course I can take.”
当被问到高糖高盐的饮食为什么能让他看起来很健康的时候，巴菲特答道：“我查过死亡率统计表，死亡率最低的是六岁儿童。所以我决定仿照六岁孩童的饮食习惯。”这位八旬老人补充道：“这样做再安全不过了。”
