The London Sunday Times is reporting "Gates to give away £65 billion fortune," quoting Bill Gates' dad (administrator of the William H. Gates Foundation) saying the younger Gates, the slightly well-off co-founder and CEO of Microsoft, "plans to become the biggest single benefactor in history by giving away his £65 billion fortune to help rid the planet of diseases such as Aids and malaria." Props to BetaNews for getting the scoop on this yesterday (they attributed it to Reuters where I couldn't find it, thanks to The AVault for the pointer to the Sunday Times).
