Microsoft founder pledges life to Berkshire Hathaway culture

Buffett has pledged the majority of his Berkshire shares to Gates’s charitable foundation.
“I’ve got a commitment to stay involved with Berkshire as a lifelong thing,” Gates, 53, said in an interview scheduled to be broadcast today. “We always have to think about what might happen and make sure Berkshire is not just great now, but forever.”
