I'm very disappointed in Warren Buffet - GoFuckYourself.com

12clicks · 06-26-2006, 05:35 PM

While I applaud his giving to charity, I'm seriously dissapointed with where its going to be spend.
Pissing it away in the third world is like putting it in a pile and setting it on fire. You want to do something good for the world, cure cancer, spend it on childhood deseases here in the US.

the third world?
it will still be the third world long after warren and his money are gone.

Jensen · 06-26-2006, 05:39 PM

from what I'm reading some of the cash will be spent on curing the 20 worst deseases in the world.. cancer gotta be top20?

BIGTYMER · 06-26-2006, 05:51 PM

5% per year, per charity. its his money let him do what he wants with it.

Don't think I've ever replied to a thread of yours, mainly because I probably disagreed with them. This, however, I have to agree with. There's tons of shit going wrong with the US - make the country stronger and the better it and its citizens can then help with other countries.

So let's see 12Clicks, mr republican, who believes in a "hands off" approach to government is telling a billionaire what to do with his money? Totaly ironic.

It's HIS money and if wanted to blow it on beer and strippers that's HIS choice. By the way how much have YOU given to these causes you think Mr Buffet should give too?

Snake Doctor · 06-26-2006, 06:11 PM

Yeah that makes perfect sense, give your charitable donations to the richest people on the planet because the poor people will still be poor in 20 years. At least this way the rich will get richer.

Sounds kind of like a republican tax plan.

a little lesson 12clicks, african countries are fucked because they are in debt, they have paid back there debts double/triple + more times. yet interest is so high. African countries are still very much mineral rich , therefore chucking money at them will help. But seriously we need to cut their debts.

Actually, since I reside in a 3rd world country (and being very familiar with the culture and politics), I can see where 12clicks/Ron is coming from. It all depends on HOW the money is going to be spent. IF it is spent through local government.... forget it, it will be pissed away through corruption and local bullshit. That's just the reality. No amount of wishful thinking will make that reality go away. HOWEVER, if the money is heavily TARGETED and spent via NGOs (non-governmental organizations) that have a track record of accountability and transparency, then the money has a FIGHTING CHANCE of actually accomplishing its goals.

For example: Despite all the feel good hoopla the Philippine government has embarked on since Imelda Marcos' days as Minister of Human Settlements, there's been a housing shortage in the Philippines. Compare that to PRIVATE INITIATIVES like Gawad Kalinga that actually provided MORE housing with WAY LESS Money. Why? Transparency, Passion, Dedication. You can't get that same result by pouring money into government-involved or government-meddled "charities." When it comes to THIRD WORLD issues, PRIVATE NGOs that are accountable and transparent are the way to go.

Pouring money into the UN can also be problematic...as evidenced by recent scandals.

I appreciate and recognize the goodness in Buffett and Gate's hearts.... it's all just a matter of METHOD and EXECUTION and ACCOUNTABILITY now.

Just my humble opinion.

Where and how anyone decides to spend their money is not the concern of anyone else. It never was.

Sadly there is a term, "freedom of speech" which bestowed rights to comment. The downside is that includes unqualified and irrelevant comment.

Thurbs · 06-26-2006, 07:12 PM

wow - since when was America the only country in the world? I mean, its charity and thats what those countries need, and diseases need to be cured. This guy made lots of money and wants to give back to the world, can't believe anyone would find fault with this at all. one world.

When someone devotes their working life to acquiring massive amounts of wealth from the residents of one region, then publically announces that he will be sending nearly all of that wealth to some other community that will squander it, it is the concern of anyone whom he tells his plans to; in this case, that would be the entire world.

Had he kept his trap shut about his intentions, it would then be no concern of anyone else. But that is not the situation he chose to create.

Start back to economics 101 and try and make a post with sense.

Buffett, directly or indirectly, has created many 1000's of jobs within the US and allowed the expansion of a wide range of industries and businesses.

Both Buffett and businesses under his wing have paid many millions in taxation for the "priviledge" of operating mainly in the US.

Without people like Warren Buffett, the US and other countries, would not be what they are today. (Damn... that needs qualified!

)

So.. mind your own fucking biz and quit whining about others who have paid more revenue to support your ass than you will ever pay - and stop moaning about the tax-paid money they have left.

PS Instead of whining about how he should spend her personal funds - listen to what he has to say. It's a clue as to the direction you may be heading in future.

Your opinions don't matter. It's not your money or your concern.

Mr Buffett is far better informed than anyone on GFY and it's his decision where he spends his personal funds.

He is also entitled to "squander" it if considers that's what he wants to do - tho, it's not exactly in his modest character to do this, - but I'd sure trust his judgement more than any GFY trolls.

Says who? You in your infinite wisdom?

We're talking about charity here, and you think charity is better spent on people who already have the highest standard of living in the history of the world than spent on people with the lowest standard of living in the world?

Me thinks you're just trying to stir up shit as usual. Welcome back, good luck with your new program.

I forgot from your other thread, that you are an imbecile.

I will try to explain this to you very simply.

The man has acquired a great deal of wealth from the country he lives in. He is now planning on sending that wealth to other regions that will not capitilize on it very well if it all, and the people who helped him generate this money will not benefit from this whatsoever because the money will be elsewhere.

So rather than helping his own country through investing in more industry or at the least giving it to charity here, he is turning his back on the same society that have helped him build his fortune.

Some idiots may simply hear the word "charity" and take a shortcut into thinking that it must be good for all involved.

I just can't believe that you actually think what you wrote ...

First of all, he is giving it to the " Gates " foundation ... because he believes that they are ready to put that wealth to the service of the poor and sick... How awfull is that ...

If the USA needs so much that money for their own poors ( I tought most of you said that they don't exist ) , well talk to your commander in chief who pisse daway much more money than that abroad ...

If it was my money, because I really don't care for the mean human race, I would have given it to wildlife refuges, rain forest conservation, Animal society and so on...
