Warren Buffett Flashes Jay-Z's Diamond Symbol At Club Opening [PHOTOS]

First Posted: 01/19/12 03:14 PM ET   Updated: 01/19/12 03:14 PM ET

Most may not associate the words "Warren Buffett" and "rage" too closely, but last night the Oracle of Omaha did exactly that.

The famed investor joined other huge names like Ashanti, Russell Simmons and Spike Lee last night at the re-opening of his pal Jay Z's Manhattan club 40/40. At the party, the 81-year-old, best known for his financial savvy, rocked Jay Z's diamond sign.

This isn't the first time that the two super rich men have been spotted together. Jay-Z made an appearance in an episode of Buffett's "Secret Millionaires Club," an animated series about a group of youngsters led by Buffett as they tackle financial emergencies. In the video, the husband of Beyonce and father of Blue Ivy Carter schools the kids on giving back.

The two also appeared together in an interview with Forbes in 2010 where they discussed the secrets of their success. Both touched on the value in having a wealth of experience and trusting their gut.

Hopefully Buffett won't face the same scrutiny for using the Roc-A-Fella sign that Jay-Z did years ago. In 2005, former pro-wrestler Diamond Dallas Page sued the rapper, alleging that he came up with the hand symbol first, according to a 2005 report from MTV News.

Check out more photos of Buffett hanging out with Jay-Z at the club below:

Did you hear about The Buffet tax plan. You don' pay your taxes you just get an Attorney to challenge the amount and some day the IRS will give up. He still owes from 2001.

Hilarious! Gotta love Warren Buffett

He is flaunting the fact that he is a member of the illuminati and he is down with the New World Order.He sold his soul for a cheap seat.

Yeah I am sure he is a member, but then again- who isn't!!! There are forces and persons who control all of popular media, commerce, government, etc!!! It is a very ancient group going back hundreds if not thousands of years!!! It is all around us and we all support it. If you got a dollar in your pocket, you're supporting the Illuminati (just look on the back of that dollar)!!! Unfortunately, there is not much that man can do against this force- just stay steadfast and set your sights on a higher, soon-to-return force.

You are absolutely correct. This man is a member of the illuminati and a 33rd degree mason also.

This man also 'donated' 31 BILLION dollars to Bill Gates Foundation, Lucis Trust. Which by the way its former name is Lucifer Trust and for obvious reasons the name was changed to Lucis Trust.

The New World Order and its evil is on the horizon.

for obvious reasons the name was changed to Lucis Trust? well for obvious reasons, why would they name it Lucifer Trust in the first place?

I agree about the "rap is crap" thing. But, what does that have to do with Warren. He's not crap.

That is a symbol used widely for the "illumanti" This is the mainstream media at its finest. Trying to tell you "you dont see a paramid , you see a diamond" Give me a break I have eyes and can see for myself what I am seeing.
