Maailman toiseksi rikkain mies Warren Buffett luopuu omaisuudestaan ja lahjoittaa sen Bill & Melinda Gates -säätiölle!The Gateses credit Buffett, says Bill, with having "inspired" their thinking about giving money back to society. Their foundation''s activities, internationally famous, are focused on world health -- fighting such diseases as malaria, HIV/AIDS, and tuberculosis -- and on improving U.S. libraries and high schools.
Up to now, the two Gateses have been the only trustees of their foundation. But as his plan gets underway, Buffett will be joining them. Bill Gates says he and his wife are "thrilled" by that and by knowing that Buffett''s money will allow the foundation to "both deepen and accelerate" its work.
