Gate's kids could always work for the Gate's Foundation. Just being on the board would probably pay well.

Buffet's son is on the board of Berkshire.

The Gates Foundation does not have a Board. It has Trustees, three of them -- Bill Gates, Melinda Gates, and Warren Buffett. All three positions are unpaid.

As for Berkshire Hathaway, Directors only get paid $3,800 a year.
