OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — When the legendary businessman and leader of Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett, eventually passes away, the next generation of Buffetts — Howard, Susie and Peter — are poised to become one of the most powerful forces in philanthropy.

Buffett announced in June that he would donate his remaining fortune to a charitable trust managed by his children when he dies — instead of giving it to the Gates Foundation. In an interview with The Associated Press, Howard Buffett says his 94-year-old father is as sharp as ever, and, “It’s pretty amazing that he’s giving us this opportunity.”
