So, Warren Buffett has just pledged to donate over $37 billion dollars to charities. Most of the money will go to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which has received $26 billion from the Gates'. That money will be spent on things like fighting AIDS in Africa and trying to improve American high schools.
The Walton's kicking in that kind of money any time soon?
Buffett: "I still believe in the philosophy - FORTUNE quoted me saying this 20 years ago - that a very rich person should leave his kids enough to do anything but not enough to do nothing."
Take that, estate tax.
