lol Bud...You realize Bill Gates does a huge amount of charity work and gives Billions of dollars to Charity...
Just thought you should know that. He is far from a Scum bag. No idea who the other people are so can't speak for them.
 
Interesting to see the various businesses that has brought these people such wealth. Personally, Warren Buffet has been a huge inspiration to me, and I urge al to read his autobiography, if you enjoy exceptional business acumen.

Indeed he did.

To give you an idea: This man bought his first shares with wages he got from working on a farm when he was 10 years old. 4 years later he bought his own farm...

He is still living in the same old house that he bought at his first job, drives a car that is more than 20 years old. He is a very down-to-earth type of guy like that. He does own a private jet company, so he does fly everywhere in absolute style though...so it's not all humble life.

But it's the way in which he comments on businesses and their decisions that makes him such a big influence in a lot of people's lives.

So it is flat out impossible to attain wealth through sheer hard work; innovative thought; intelligence and determination?
One MUST be corrupt as well?

That very narrow minded and also highly offensive. My dad got his wealth through hard work and building trust with his people not through corruption and theft.
