Summary

Warren Buffett gave $1.1 billion in Berkshire Hathaway stock to family foundations and detailed plans for distributing his $147 billion fortune after his death.

His three children will oversee giving the remainder within 10 years, with designated successors in case they predecease him.

Buffett, 94, reaffirmed his belief in avoiding dynastic wealth, favoring philanthropy instead.

Over the years, he has donated $55 billion to the Gates Foundation but plans to shift focus to his family’s foundations.

Buffett continues leading Berkshire Hathaway while preparing Greg Abel as his successor.

      I’m all for taxing the rich and universal Healthcare. As for money, it sadly won’t ever happen in my timeframe. Been a firefighter and emt for over 15 years. The public wants their taxes low. If I were making 74k I’d practically feel like a millionaire.
