    It’s very easy for a billionaire to say this…I’ve wondered about Warren Buffett. Is he saying these things because he really believes them, or because he knows people are waking up, and he wants them to believe that he is ‘on their side’ to attempt to save himself? I mean, is he actually doing anything to change things? Is he backing up his words with actions? I don’t know, maybe he has, I honestly haven’t done any research into it. But, at the same time, I really haven’t heard of him actually DOING anything to back up his words.

    You’ve read my mind here, adimauro. I was thinking the exact same thing as I was posting this. 😉

    Buffett donated over half his wealth to charity (largest donation in history.) Over 30 billion and plans not to leave a lot to his kids. Most of the rest of his wealth will also go to philanthropy once he dies (something like 98%.) So I’d say he’s doing things to help everyone.

    I hope that is true, and I hope the donations do help everyone. I also hope others follow his lead, and that someday, such generosity isn’t needed, because the world is a kinder, gentler, more caring place, with all of us on a level/balanced plain (equality).

    Thanks for stopping in, Greg, and for taking the time to comment.
