The Giving Pledge

At the annual meeting a couple of years ago I asked about your estate plan and your idea of leaving kids enough so they can do anything but not so much that they can do nothing. Today I'd like to ask you about your decision to sign the giving pledge promising to give away at least one half of your assets to charity. Can you talk about your views on philanthropy and how to balance leaving an inheritance to your family versus assets to charity? Well it depends very much on the individual situation, he says.
