subject: The Fact About Bill Gates And The Charity Works He Does [print this page] Some people regard Bill Gates with a lot of venom and he can easily pass as the most hated man in the USA. I would not be surprised if you are one of those who hate him.
Rest assured that you need not hate the guy. He is simply one of the most magnanimous souls that still exist in this world. His foundation, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is responsible for funding charities all over the world upwards of 1.5 billion dollars annually. Just think of that!
Recently, he left his work at Microsoft to concentrate on working for charities. It is amazing how people still regard such a person with hatred, and you wonder if they are not somewhat jealous of him.
Well, maybe it is difficult for a corporate like Microsoft to remain totally clean, but think of how many other such businesses could be worse.
Bill Gates and Microsoft have earned the respect of the whole world, and most people would be glad to be part of their success, and the man commands attention as the person who has reversed the tide of poverty and turned it into great wealth.
There is no honor in being small and poor, contrary to what many people think; that it is ok because poor people are good too.
Maybe Bill Gates had an idea about this and so he tried hard to turn himself into a person who had the capacity to make an impact in the world. If you are just sitting there wondering what your meager savings can do, what about asking yourself what you are doing to make your society better?
What Bill Gates is doing to help the world is huge, ranging from the AIDS research funding, alleviating hunger in the world, and just trying his best to be an excellent person internationally.
There is a wrong attitude in some who tend to think that those who are successful and wealthy are very evil, greedy and selfish people. Such an attitude should be purged from our midst because how will anyone ever aspire to become wealthy if he thinks all the rich people are just evil? It means in his mind he is the good person and so he should just remain poor.
