Known as the "Oracle of Omaha," Warren Buffett is one of the most successful investors of all time. He runs investing conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway, which owns dozens of companies, including insurer Geico, battery maker Duracell and restaurant chain Dairy Queen. The son of a U.S.
congressman, he first bought stock at age 11 and first filed taxes at age 13. Buffett created the Giving Pledge with Bill Gates and Melinda French Gates in 2010, asking billionaires to commit to give away at least half their fortune to charitable groups.
Buffett has said he would donate 99% of his fortune. So far he’s give $59.3 billion of Berkshire Hathaway stock to the Gates Foundation and foundations run by his children and one started by his late first wife. That includes $5.3 billion in June, which helped knock him down in the ranks to No.
