Didn't Bill Gates sign a pledge to give all of his money away? And he is billions richer than last year? Huh.
Yes he signed up to give his money away. To a charitable trust. Which he and his family controls. And can withdraw from at any time.
It isnt a charity pledge, its a plan to avoid paying taxes.
