  This is what he was able to make all of the property donated to the reason lies. 1

In 1994, Gates had sold some Microsoft stock to fund the 94 million U.S. dollars to establish the William H. Gates Foundation.

Gates naked rich lesson for the Chinese to donate!

In the last month after the Wenchuan earthquake, the Chinese mainland's richest have also contributed to the disaster areas in order to be in the end the number of models it is appropriate, in the dispute over the media, today. Had more than a month when the world's richest man, American Bill Gates, in his own words and deeds, for the Chinese mainland, these tycoons who make good lesson in wealth class. The concept of the world's richest man's wealth, and his awareness of this charity, enough to let the Chinese mainland are deeply ashamed of those rich endless.

    In China 2000 years of feudal society, because of the generally low levels of productivity, when it was that "man-made financial death, the birds feed on death" is the only right and proper thing. Of course, in the ancient Western society, such as Ge Langtai miser like to frequent. However, times had changed, in today's modern society, living in well-off society in the end the Chinese people should have a concept of how the wealth? Our society does not seem to give a clear code of ethics. In the modern Western world, the United States has always been highly respected and wealthy philanthropist Carnegie, who once said this statement: "In the wealthy to die, is a disgrace." Bill Gates has also said so: "the name of the huge personal wealth, is not only a huge right, it is a huge obligations." Not so long ago, the world's second richest Buffett, the world's charity to donate 85% of their wealth, or about 37 billion U.S. dollars. For decades, such as Carnegie, Bill Gates and Warren Buffett way, one after another of America's wealthiest individuals actively involved in charity, in return for charitable contributions to society and an important means of helping the weak, but also take the lead in the formation of American society the "taken from society, with the society," a charitable tradition. According to statistics from the China Charity Federation, the U.S. per capita GDP is 38 times that of China, while the U.S. per capita amount of charitable donations is 7300 times that of China!



Gates and the three successor

 

    Chinese mainland's richest short time because of riches, the attitude towards wealth, seems problematic. Them more inter-generational transfer method is based on inherited wealth. The lack of inheritance a tremendous amount of wealth they can with impunity to stay with their children from generation to generation to enjoy, but rarely consider donations to charitable manner with little regard to society. So in mainland China are "merciless" at all. This statement is not something out of nothing. The reason why the Chinese mainland's richest charity not keen on is not cold, not because we are a small number of tycoons. 2007 Hurun List shows that in China, more than one billion U.S. dollars of property tycoons has had over Germany, after the United States, ranking second worldwide. Although statistics are not authoritative, but more and more wealthy Chinese, it is an indisputable fact. For various reasons, China's massive population did not form as rich as Bill Gates "to the best way to have a positive impact to society," a charitable awareness, which is rich in mainland China and the world, such as Gates, the greatest gap between the rich lies. From the China Charity Federation statistics indicate that mainland China's richest have 85% of the wealth donated to charity the proportion of less than 15%. 2003 Forbes 100 richest Chinese, there is Qi Cheng did not enter the 2004 "charity List." In 2004, mainland China's 135 philanthropists list were a total of only 985 million yuan donation, about 1 million U.S. dollars. Gates and the United States compared to our rich who do not blush?

    Gates of such an act, but also for his children, pointed out a path to success, when his children to know they did not rely on, we must rely on their own, they would go to work and may be successful. Imagine if Bill Gates were to 58 billion U.S. dollars were left to their children, will they stand to become indolent it? The United States, Gates is undoubtedly wise, but how many wealthy parents in mainland China really know this truth?

    Human society is a great love of charity, but also a responsibility. In mainland China, the growing gap between rich and poor increased, more and more apparent polarization of the moment, charitable donations may be comic, also has the elimination of the social concerns of the social factors. Thus the fact that Bill Gates to donate all the property in front of our society, especially when we are the rich who really need a deep self-reflection.

 

An American-style philanthropy is what Tempered

"Can you donate 10 money? The money is used to help Chinese orphans." The only 10-year-old American girl at the door of her neighbor pleaded. From 5 years beginning Tuoli every year to attend a fund-raising for the Chinese orphans "hope action", each time, she must be to all relatives and friends, neighbors, or call or take the initiative to come to persuade them to contribute, but to the annual Christmas, she told friends and family, she will not gifts, as long as the money, and then donate to.

The Bible teaches

United States Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University survey statistics show that in 2005, with 67% of American households donate to charity section. Hoped that the project proponent, Southern Community Foundation, vice chairman of the Du Xu Yongguang said in the past few years, the U.S. annual per capita contribution to reach more than 800 U.S. dollars, while China with 10 yuan less.

Americans are charitable with their Christian faith to a large extent related. "Bible" in a verse from Luke Lane: "Jesus, the rise of view, see the rich man to donate items to vote in the library, you see a poor widow cast two mites, they say: 'I can tell you, this poor widow of the to vote more than than everyone, because everyone is more than their own, out to vote in the tax-ri; but his widow is a shortage of all the vigor of her on the cast.
