Married for 34 years with two children who are struggling to reach their goals in the medical professions, I know the meaning of struggle. Ive met two Popes, several mega persons in the business world, a few movie stars. Of all these, Shirley Temple most impressed me. My wife is disabled and in much pain. I'm retired and do my best to care for her. As we try to make it through the bills and everyday pressures of our life, I at times, get tired of seeing the faces of billionairs on TV and on the net who give and compete to be on lists. I question their motivations. After all, actions are not relly important. Only motivation is the real truth. I liked Buffett's Polish Jew story. I think, however, he still needs much to learn before he dies. Where your treasure is, there your heart is. Warren, I think, is a good man. When I spoke to the likes of Edgar Kaiser, I could easily see their motivations. Warren with the Polish Jew story, what really is your tresure? What, really, is your motivation? I guess I still stand firm on the fact that the poor give more to the poor than any billionair could hope to. They give what they cannot. They give their souls. Peace...
