artjones 20-Jan-06, 09:33	Why? No, I would give it to perpetuate my own world. Why do you think they are 3rd, is it because they don't have money? What's money got to do with it, got to do with it, got to do with it...
pagodapanicdog 02-Mar-06, 21:42	He has enough money and brain power to.. be in the news daily for what he could be doing with his money...for his own country, charities, international needs, research, you name it...hey , mayby just something to get attention, why not?! (Micheal Jackson does LOL!) I dont think I could have done what he has to get the money, but I know I for damn sure I wouldnt be leaving this world after making that kind of money with just being known for microsoft! He is a looser! (this from a hand to mouth blue collar working man-chef-LOL)
coopershawk 04-Mar-06, 13:33	artjones- 3rd world question You are right in implying that lack of money does not cause countries to be part of the 3rd world. Lack of money is simply a symptom. If you want to read a good book about the causes, I recommend "Guns, Germs and Steel" by Jared Diamond. He also wrote a book titled "Collapse-- How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed." I have not yet read the second. James

You will succeed as a person when your greatest possession is your best friend You will succeed as a nation when your greatest export is opportunity you will succeed as a world when your greatest acheivment is unity

artjones 20-Mar-06, 09:36	Rich or wealthy? Per capita the United Arab Emerates is the wealthyest nation in the world and their mantra is (?) The richest nation in the world produces the greatest opportunity (USA) and their mantra is "In God we trust all others pay cash."
