WELCOME TO PETER BUFFETT'S NING COMMUNITY!

LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT IN STORES NOW!

Photobucket

Life Is What You Make It takes on themes of earning ones own reward, following passions over convention and how part of life's journey can be found through the process of giving back.

Check out what people are saying already:

“Peter Buffett has given us a wise and inspiring book that should be required reading for every young person seeking to find his or her place in the world, and for every family hoping to give its daughters and sons the best possible start in life.”
–President Bill Clinton

"Knowing and admiring Peter as we do, this book captures his spirit, passion and values beautifully. As parents, it’s the kind of dialogue about our life’s purpose and opportunity we’re having with our children. We will have everyone in our family read and discuss the book."
—Bill & Melinda Gates

"LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT is the ultimate book of commonsense -- except it isn't common. Because Peter Buffett could have had a derived identity and chose not to, he has power and credibility when he tells us how to find a unique self by doing what we love. I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't benefit from this spirited, wise, and friendly book."
–Gloria Steinem

"With home-spun, heart-felt wisdom, Peter Buffett ponders how to make a meaningful life, while making a living. LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT is thought-provoking, worthwhile reading."
—Ted Turner

April 4, 2013 » Throwback Thursday: "Bought and Sold" Vlog

It's Throwback Thursday! Peter is kicking off a weekly series of sharing older video blogs that were originally exclusive to his Ning community. This first vlog was for the single "Bought and Sold". Watch it below.

The politically-driven single was released to address our values as a nation, our moral bankruptcy, and our precarious moment in history. Peter explores the trend of exploitation in our corporations, banks, and government, asking “how much is enough?”

April 3, 2013 » Huffington Post Blog - "Change Our Story: From East to West"

While in China this week, Peter is experiencing the depth of influence western culture has on the east. Reflecting on this persuasion, he explores how the mixture of culture and ideas (happiness, wealth, consumerism, etc.), can create both positive and negative changes to our global story. Read “Change Our Story: From East to West” here.
