And apparently the man is worth $500 million. By ultra rich standards that's not even wildly wealthy. How many people could somebody like Warren Buffet pay education costs for?

Average cost of college is under $150k/person. Warrant Buffet is worth $133,500,000,000 (rounded heavily). Warranty buffet could pay for approximately 890,000 people to go to college.

However given the fact that is most of a million people, and how much of a racket education in the US, I think the actual figure is much higher, because he could do several things to drastically reduce the overhead involved.
