Buffett’s pledge

Warren Buffett’s article today at Fortune.com – but most importantly, his, Bill & Melinda Gates’ challenge to billionaires to give away 50% of their wealth – has billionaires all over the world discussing philanthropy. His approach seems absolutely right on: his circle of competence doesn’t include being able to spot the best projects and foundations, so he trusted his billions to Bill Gates, a personal friend whose Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is extremely well regarded. And yes, there’s the mandatory Charlie Rose 1-hour interview!

All we can say is WOW.
