One news story jumped right out at me this morning.
William Buffett is donating $37 BILLION Dollars to the 'Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation"!!!
That's the equvilant of 88% of Buffetts entire wealth (he's got an estimated $42 billion personal fortune). OK, so it still leaves him $5 billion which is more than you need to live on, but you don't see many other billionaires or millionaires doing that.
Well done to the guy.
