Buffett says Gates' ties to Epstein are 'distasteful' but not why his fortune is going elsewhere

Warren Buffett stated his decision to exclude the Gates Foundation from his charitable giving is due to his children's readiness to manage his fortune, not Bill Gates' past association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Buffett acknowledged Gates' ties to Epstein as 'distasteful' but emphasized past mistakes are common, and he plans to donate his remaining $140 billion to family foundations by 2034.
