Im not sure if that was sarcastic or not but in my mind $29 billion is a lot. And the things he has given to are worthwhile things such as a foundation to create a mosquito that when it bites you makes you immune to malaria.
is that at me
im serious... with that much given money how is there people starving

It was, no offence by the way. I just get a bit paranoid because some people tend to jump down throats when enthusiasm is shown towards an issue.
The amount of money given away is vast which leads me t beleive that maybe the problem in the third world countries is not money, it is probably something to do with governments and disease.

Intervention is not wanted by some countries (zimbabwe) being an example. Another issue is our reputation. People dont like us because we try and help at every opportunity whether it is our business or not, so i think we are less inclined to help other nations at present.

The 4th place man,Lakshmi Mittal,is QPR's new joint owner with Flavio Briatore.Hopefully he will invest a few quid in the summer. 
He made his money from taking over British Steel and making it into a profitable buisness.
He apparantly earns £964,000 A DAY.

Warren Buffett, worth 62 billion, more than Bill gates  .
The thing that gets me the most is that in 2006 his annual income was 50k or $100000.
I would probable have trouble spending that much money lol, and I'm good at splashing cash
wiki link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_Buffett
also list of the 100 wealthiest people of which Bill gates is now 3rd
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_billionaires_%282008%29
Ha, the richest man in the world - i don't think so.
The Rothchild family fortune is estimated at between 100-300 Trillion US dollars by many economists. This makes them several hundred times richer than Mr Buffett.
Whilst this may seem totally ridiculous, they are shareholders in the Federal Reserve, Bank of England, Bank of Canada, Bank of Australia & new zealand, and who know what else, Shareholders of the Bank of International Settlements, the World Bank, & the IMF. Bankrupted all countries, gov't & monarchies. These people have funded both sides of every major war for more than 200 years.

An excellent article written 18 months ago by Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones, predicting everything that has happened in the economy in the last 18 months. Including why Buffett and Gates wanted to sell-off of the dollar in time for the planned economic crash.

Morton (1962) noted that the Rothschild wealth was estimated at over $6 billion US in 1850. Not a significant amount in today's dollars; however, consider the potential future value compounded over 147 years!
Taking $6 billion (and assuming no erosion of the wealth base) and compounding that figure at various returns on investment (a conservative range of 4% to 8%) would suggest the following net worth of the Rothschild family enterprise:
$1.9 trillion US (@ 4%)
$7.8 trillion US (@ 5%)
$31.5 trillion US (@ 6%)
$125,189.1 trillion US (@ 7%)
$491,409.0 trillion US (@ 8%)
To give these figures some perspective consider these benchmarks:
A little of $300 billion US buys every ounce of gold in every central bank in the world (see John Kutyn's estimate (http://www.gold-eagle.com/gold_digest/kutyn111597.html).
U.S. M3 money supply August 1997 was $5.2 trillion
U.S. debt is currently $5.4 trillion.
U.S. GDP (1997; 2nd Q.) is $8.03 trillion.
George Soros' empire is worth an estimated $20 billion.

Really? The only one I can see is that there was to be a gobal crash to create a world government. Did this happen? I may have missed it.....

ROFL, he is a writer mate, not an economist. As for those figures, well...what can I say. A liner extrapolation into infinity and beyond lol. Shall we try the same with the family of a Roman emperor, after all componding interest over 2,000 years is much more impressive than 150 even from a more modest base.
You've made my day mate

Obviously not as a Roman Emperor is not still printing of the money and then lending it to all major governments, unless you want to show me otherwise?
Therefore this is a ridiculous example to give.
