The question was brought up as to why he wouldn't leave the money to his children, and he said that he didn't believe in dyanastic wealth. Buffet stated "I'll leave my kids enough to do anything they want, but not enough to do nothing. Everyone should make a signifigant impact in the world."<BR/><BR/>Granted, as you said Scott, this does not give you the Golden Ticket into heaven. Christ made the ultimate sacrifice so that we can go to a place we may not deserve to be in, and the only way to get there is to follow his word. I am glad though that Buffet is using his money to help out in the world and save a few lives, lives who will hopefully follow Christ, rather than letting his money fund the Paris Hilton's of the earth.<BR/><BR/>-Chris D.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30534753.post-1152680578332592922006-07-11T22:02:00.000-07:002006-07-11T22:02:00.000-07:00Scott - Interesting post.

I'm thrilled to see Buffet and Gates giving away their money to help others but agree with your commentary. Thanks for starting the blog.<BR/><BR/>Jeff C.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
