Personally though, he already gave away most of his wealth to philanthropy via Gates Foundation.

99%+ of his wealth is in Berkshire, though, so the better Berkshire does, the more billions will go to Gates and a few other foundations (mostly run by his kids).

Yes. Gates Foundation works on various philanthropic causes, notably global health issues.
