Here’s where it gets juicy. Could Howard’s children eventually run Berkshire? Technically, no. Warren has said the next CEO will be chosen by the board, not by family tradition. But let’s be real—if one of Howard’s kids turns out to be a financial genius with a green thumb, who’s to stop them?
For now, the grandkids are likely living normal lives. Probably going to school. Probably driving used cars. Probably being told, “Your grandpa is rich, but don’t you dare ask for an allowance.” That’s the Berkshire way.

Why Should You Care?
Honestly? You probably shouldn’t. Unless you own Berkshire stock. Then you might want to know if the next chairman’s kids are going to sell all the See’s Candy for a quick buck. Spoiler: they won’t. Howard is all about legacy and stewardship. His kids will likely follow that same boring, profitable path.
So, does Howard Buffett have children? Yes, four of them. Are they going to be the next Warren Buffett? Probably not. But they’ll probably be very, very good at farming—and that’s okay. Sometimes the best inheritance isn’t money; it’s a love for corn and compound interest.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go check if any of Howard’s kids are on TikTok. If they are, they’re definitely not taking after their dad. And if they’re not? Well, that’s the most Buffett thing ever.
