Who is Warren Buffet? You cant be serious. He owns Berhshire Hathaway. He is only the 2nd richest man in the world.

This is a very nice gesture by Buffet and he has given millions to charities in the past. However, you have to read behind the lines. He is getting ready to announce a successor to his company and he is getting ready to move his assets in case of his demise. In the letter Buffet wrote to Bill and Melinda Gates, he wants all the money distributed in the year in which he donates and not added to the foundation's assets for future giving.
