Warren Buffet

After reading about Warren Buffet and his plans on giving up most of his fortune, I wondered if he had any kids. The first article that I came across didn't mention any, and so I naturally assumed that he didn't have any kids.

But I was wrong, in this interview he mentions that he believes that his kids have had all the advantages anyway, in terms of how they grew up and the education they have had and that it was not rational to be flooding them with money.

Can anyone beat this? I am not referring to his "donating the fortune" bit, but his objectively accepting that his kids have had ample opportunities in this world, and that he shouldn't leave his fortune for them.
