Billionaire Donors Hold Secret Meeting


"Under a cloak of secrecy, some of the world's wealthiest people gathered in an unprecedented meeting early this month in New York City possibly to coordinate strategies for giving their vast fortunes to charity in the midst of the financial crisis," ABC News reports.

Bill Gates and Warren Buffett "were joined by billionaire moguls Oprah Winfrey, Ted Turner and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg along with heavyweight philanthropists George Soros, David Rockefeller and others. Together the attendees have donated over $70 billion to charity since 1996."
