Nicole Buffett

Nicole Buffett is the adopted daughter of Warren Buffet's son, Peter, and she became a focal point of media attention when she publicly revealed that she was disowned by her famous grandfather. Nicole Buffett, an artist based in Berkeley, California, who specializes in abstract landscapes, hasn't been a beneficiary of the family's massive wealth. She found herself cut off from the family fortune. Buffett was not happy with her participation in Jamie Johnson's 2006 documentary, "The One Percent" and sent her a letter stating, "I have not emotionally or legally adopted you as a grandchild, nor have the rest of my family adopted you as a niece or a cousin." Nicole was very close to and Bufett’s first wife, Susan, who passed away in 2004. Despite being separated since 1977, Susan maintained an active role in philanthropy and was known for her compassion. In her will, she named Nicole as one of her "adored grandchildren," leaving her a sum of $100,000. It appears NFTs has served as a catalyst for a reconnection between Nicole and her grandfather. According to Coindesk, Buffett reached out to Nicole via email to express his support for her digital art ventures—the first contact between them in years. Nicole explained he was excited about her NFT-based art show in his hometown of Omaha, Nebraska. Warren Buffett has pledged to donate 99% of his billions to charitable organizations, primarily through the Gates Foundation.
