Matt Busbice and his partners have built and sold several outdoor companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars. But Busbice, the 42-year-old owner of sporting goods store BuckFeather in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, says he has never felt richer than he did the day he received a single dollar.

In 1993, Gates, accompanied by his future wife Melinda, visited Omaha, Nebraska, to attend a Berkshire Hathaway Inc. shareholder’s conference.

At the time, Gates’ net worth was estimated at $6.2 billion, which meant following Buffett's advice would set the ring’s price at $370 million.Despite the suggestion, Gates did not indulge in the...
