Warren Buffett's alma mater is Nebraska.

Warren Buffett is worth $89.1 billion.
Has he ever given any money to the school?
Also, it got me thinking...who is Clemson's richest alum?

I believe the founder of Hooters and Naturally Fresh was a Clemson grad.

Several former football players have signed some big contracts making them extremely rich but some how I believe that they are not the richest alumni. Surely a non athlete has graduated from clemson and has made bank. Probably more than you would think. You just don't hear about it and there donations to Clemson are maybe private. I'm sure there is a ceo, businesses owner, etrepeneur, or inventer that has surpassed what some of these football players have earned or will earn. Don't know if that billionaire loto winner graduated from clemson.

I guess we can leave Dabo off the list since he is not Alumni.

I had no idea Buffet was worth that much .
Never liked a single one of his songs and his stores and bars are all overrated IMO .
