WARREN BUFFET FULFILLED HIS PLEDGE TO GIVE AWAY HIS BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY SHARES
Warren Buffett gives away another $4.1 billion, resigns from Bill and Melinda Gates foundation.
Warren Buffett gives away $4.1 billion worth of Berkshire shares to 5 foundations, and resigns as trustee at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. He says in his statement today during the event;
“In 2006, I pledged to distribute all of my Berkshire Hathaway shares, more than 99% of my net worth to philanthropy, with today’s $4.1 billion distribution, I’m halfway there.”
Despite paying his taxes which serves everyone in America, it's hard to believe a man that pays hos share of taxes than any millionaire is actually doing the philanthropy he is doing.
Buffett's resignation as Gates Foundation trustee comes as the charitable organization faces a tumultuous time with the divorce of its two founders.
