Тэрбумтан Уоррен Баффет өөрийн хөрөнгийг буяны үйлсэд зарцуулах төлөвлөгөөнөөс Гейтсийн санг хасаж байгаагаа мэдэгдэж, уг шийдвэр нь гэр бүлийнхээ гишүүдэд илүү их хариуцлага хүлээлгэхтэй холбоотой болохыг онцлов.
Тэрбумтан Уоррен Баффет өөрийн эзэмшлийн Berkshire Hathaway компанийн 140 тэрбум ам.долларын үлдэгдэл хувьцааг ирээдүйд гэр бүлийнхээ гурван хүүхдийн удирддаг сангуудад шилжүүлэхээр шийдвэрлэжээ. Тэрээр энэхүү хөрөнгийг 2034 оны эцэс гэхэд бүрэн зарцуулж дуусгахын тулд жил бүрийн хандивлах хэмжээг 17 тэрбум ам.доллароос давуулан нэмэгдүүлэх шаардлагатай байгааг CNBC телевизэд өгсөн ярилцлагадаа дурдсан байна.
Билл Гейтс болон Жэффри Эпштейн нарын харилцааг “таагүй” гэж үзэж буйгаа илэрхийлсэн ч Баффет уг шийдвэртээ энэ асуудлыг гол шалтгаан болгоогүй гэдгээ мэдэгдэв. Тэрээр хүмүүсийг таньж сонгох тал дээр алдаа гаргах нь бизнесийн ертөнцөд тохиолддог хэвийн үзэгдэл бөгөөд Билл Гейтс уг харилцаагаа зогсоосон гэдгийг онцолжээ.
Баффетын хөрөнгөө хурдацтай зарцуулах төлөвлөгөө нь Berkshire Hathaway компанийн ирээдүйн удирдлагад тодорхой нөлөө үзүүлж болзошгүй юм. Түүний залгамжлагчаар томилогдсон Грег Абель компанийг удирдахад гэр бүлийнхний дэмжлэгийг урьд төлөвлөж байснаас богино хугацаанд хүртэхээр болж байна. Хэдий тийм ч Баффет, Абелийг тус конгломератыг удирдахад хамгийн тохиромжтой хүн гэдэгт итгэлтэй байгаагаа илэрхийлжээ.

Billionaire Warren Buffett said Wednesday that his decision to cut the Gates Foundation out of his charitable giving is more about believing his three kids are ready to handle giving away his entire fortune than it is about Bill Gates ‘ ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Buffett told CNBC that Gates’ association with Epstein was “distasteful,” but the 95-year-old investor suggested that Gates’ actions weren’t much different from mistakes he himself had made over the years in hiring the wrong person or in choosing friends.
“No one bats a thousand in the business of choosing people,” Buffett said on CNBC.

Buffett said he “read a great deal since Jan. 1 in terms of what happened with Bill and Epstein. And I have read his remarks to Congress given under oath, and I read the cross-examination.” He noted that Gates eventually ended his relationship with Epstein.
Buffett said Gates wasn’t surprised by the decision Buffett announced Tuesday to eventually donate all the rest of his $140 billion of Berkshire Hathaway stock to foundations associated with his family and his three children, Howard, Susie and Peter. Gates flew to Omaha a few weeks ago and spent several hours talking with Buffett. The two hadn’t spoken much since before additional details about Gates and Epstein started to come out when the federal government began releasing files from the Epstein investigation.
Gates has said that he only met with Epstein because he thought it might help him raise money for charitable causes, and he didn’t know about Epstein’s ongoing crimes.

Epstein, who was accused of sexually abusing dozens of underage girls, was found dead at the Manhattan federal lockup in August 2019. His death was later ruled a suicide by New York City’s medical examiner.
Buffett said in 2024 that he planned to cut off donations to the Gates Foundation after he died and let his three children decide how to distribute the rest of his fortune.

In other news from the CNBC interview,, Buffett revealed that he recently broke his leg and underwent surgery for it, but he said he is recovering well.
Drastically increasing donations to give away his fortune by 2034
The Gates Foundation didn’t immediately respond after Buffett’s interview on Wednesday, but a day earlier the foundation thanked Buffett for donating more than $47 billion since 2006. The Gates Foundation plans to close in 2045 after distributing the rest of Gates’ fortune.

Buffett said he wants his own money to be distributed even quicker than he has previously indicated: by the end of 2034. To do that, he will have to drastically increase the amount he donates every year, to more than $17 billion annually.
Right now he is giving roughly $6 billion to the Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation and the foundations his children run: the Sherwood Foundation, the Howard G. Buffett Foundation and the Novo Foundation. The majority of that is going to the foundation named in honor of his late wife, which may quickly become one of the world’s largest such organizations. Buffett also traditionally gives additional gifts to his family foundations around Thanksgiving each year.
He has said that after his death, a new foundation will be created to distribute the rest of his shares and that his children will have to agree unanimously on where to donate them. He wants his children to be able to make those decisions before they die and his oldest daughter will be nearly 81 in eight years.
Buffett’s donations may affect his successor’s support
The accelerated pace of Buffett’s plan to give away his fortune over the next eight years rather than doing it over the 10 years following his death will mean that his successor at Berkshire Hathaway, Greg Abel, won’t be able to count on the support of Buffett’s family as the company’s biggest shareholder for as long as he thought.
Nevertheless, Buffett said he believes it’s clear that Abel is the right man to lead the conglomerate he built, and “that becomes more evident by the day.”
However, Buffett did note that Berkshire’s big investment in Google’s parent company, which has grown in value considerably over the past year, is one he initiated and not an investment Abel picked, though Abel did agree on it. Just last month, Berkshire agreed to invest another $10 billion in Alphabet after previously tripling its stake in the company.
