Warren Buffet to give way 85% of his fortune

or about $37 billion...

[money.cnn.com...]
"Buffett has pledged to gradually give 85% of his Berkshire stock to five foundations. A dominant five-sixths of the shares will go to the world's largest philanthropic organization, the $30 billion Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, whose principals are close friends of Buffett's (a connection that began in 1991, when a mutual friend introduced Buffett and Bill Gates)."

I think that this gift will be worth much more as the stock will defintely go up...they seem grossly undervalued to me, as most other old fashion companies have been these last few years. Kudos to him.

>> Can I have my £100 please?

Go out for lunch with Buffet, you have about 2 hours to convince him [msnbc.msn.com...] .£100 is nothing to him so you have a very good chance.
