He expressed complete trust in their values and capabilities, highlighting their preparedness for this responsibility. 


Buffett emphasized that future philanthropic decisions are best made by those living, who can adapt to changing circumstances and laws. This approach underscores the importance of empowering successors and allowing them flexibility in decision-making.
