Nothing strange or bizarre about this one, Power Lunch with a Legend, Warren Buffett:
Well I had a bunch of crazy listings for you today but I came across this one and figured this deserved to be the headliner. This is truly a really cool, spectacular auction and a great cause to boot. From the auction listing: This is the chance of a lifetime to experience first hand the one-and-only Warren Buffett. As CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, Mr. Buffett is famed for his strikingly successful investment strategies and is as well known for his personal integrity as his business savvy. He is, quite simply, a legend, and he will sit down with you and up to seven of your friends for lunch. Value: Priceless Donated by: Warren Buffett.
Alan Stillman, Chairman and CEO of the renowned Smith & Wollensky Restaurant Group, has generously agreed to contribute $10,000 to Glide for the privilege of hosting the lunch at Smith & Wollensky in New York on a date selected by Mr. Buffett and the winning bidder. Smith & Wollensky has been called "the steakhouse to end all arguments" by The New York Times. 100% of the proceeds from the winning bid will benefit the Glide Foundation, one of the most comprehensive service providers working with the poor and homeless in San Francisco. Mr. Buffett will sit down with the highest bidder and up to seven of your friends for lunch in New York. A mutually agreed upon date and time for the lunch will be selected by Mr. Buffett and the winning bidder. All bidders must pre-qualify. Bidding starts at $25,000.
