BP: Walmart heir, Buffett to give away $4.8 billion of fortunes

The world's richest can't give away their money fast enough - but that's not stopping them from trying.

Warren Buffett said Monday he plans to donate $3.6 billion of Berkshire Hathaway stock to five charities - one of his largest gifts ever - while Walmart heir Jim Walton gave away $1.2 billion of the retailer's shares last week. And Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus said this weekend he's planning to gift almost his entire $4.5 billion fortune before he dies.
