The content of this article was denied by Gates' father who was supposed to be the source. Senior said that he indicated Bill and Melinda will give away much of their money, but never said that they would give away 100B or leave only 10M per kid. The London reporter admitted making the figures up. Gates giving away much of his wealth is old news so I guess the guy thought he'd make some details up.
