Before the nearly $140 billion fortune, Warren Buffett was serving his country while building his career in finance.⁣
⁣
In the 1950s, the future billionaire worked as a pay specialist in the Army National Guard. At the same time, he sold investments at his father’s brokerage firm and analyzed securities for his mentor Ben Graham.⁣
⁣
Today, at 95, Buffett ranks No. 9 on Forbes’ list of America’s Most Successful Living Veterans.⁣
