The Gates Foundation will own the single largest block of Berkshire Hathaway post WEB passing and is/was WEB's closest friend in life.
Neither of these statements are even remotely true. As discussed on this board in a fair bit of detail, Buffet has stopped granted shares to the Gates Foundation and upon his death his remaining shares will go to a foundation run by his children.
According to the 13F, the Gates Foundation owns about 22 million B shares, which is a lot. But it is a tiny number compared to Vanguard, Blackrock, etc. As a SWAG the Gates Foundation might not even be in the top ten largest shareholders. And of course, B shares are non-voting.
Also as discussed on this board, Gates and Buffet have had some sort of falling out in recent years. We don't know what their relationship is, but they don't seem to be close at the moment.
But if one suggests Gates is in DEEP trouble due to his ties to Epstein and the Covid vaccines, it is labeled and POLITICAL and one is derided and told to ignore.
That's not true either. You can for yourself from your own post history that it isn't true.
History will be the final arbiter and I sense truth is forthcoming very soon.
Truth would be quite refreshing.
