I read this today as well, it's simply a stunning gesture. Words don't really do it justice.
Much as people dislike Bill Gates as well, you can't knock his charity work.

I feel sorry for his kids. How are they going to survive by dividing up ten billion? If they have to live off the interest, what the hell are they going to do?
$300mill a year just wouldn't cut it...

Sorrry Forever,
Hate to pick you up on this, but they are clones of Jenga Fet not Boba!

Jango Fett.
btw, a friend noticed, they can't cash it, because it would turn the stockmarket upside down. Bill has to keep it invested, which makes him more and more powerful.. In 20 years the world will be run by The Foundation..

In fact, Mr. Buffett has long made it clear that he had no intention of leaving a dynastic fortune to his three children."I love it when I'm around the country club and I hear people talking about the debilitating effects of a welfare society," he said yesterday. "At the same time, they leave their kids a lifetime and beyond of food stamps. Instead of having a welfare officer, they have a trust officer. And instead of food stamps, they have stocks and bonds."
