This is awesome and it's inspiring to see the Gates' making huge moves in philanthropy. It makes me wonder what the philanthropy would look like if other business leaders like Warren Buffet were also to run major charitable institutions.

Buffett is a trustee of their foundation and pledged most of his money to it a decade ago.
