Buffett Lunch Sets $2.62 Million Record

We spotted this today:

"The winning bidder for a lunch with billionaire investor Warren Buffett made one final decision late Friday -- that he or she wanted to set a record.

Glide, the charity that benefits from the charity lunch auction with Buffett, announced that the anonymous bidder raised the winning bid after the auction to $2,626,411. That tops the $2.6 million record for the event set in last year's auction."
