If you think managing a multi-billion dollar multi-national conglomerate is tough well then imagine trying to give away money in a multi-billion dollar foundation? That will indeed be tough, but there are two men with quite a bit of management experience between them who are going to give it a shot.

Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have united in a common cause to help humanity to the tune of 60 Billion Dollars. That is right the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has added a trustee; Warren Buffet. Now their foundation has 60 Billion to spend on worthy causes to help the whole of humanity.

Giving away money is difficult and some say the most difficult thing in the world. Giving away money efficiently is very hard. But imagine what they can do together, these three great human beings. Imagine what will be done for Education and what about TB, AIDS and Malaria? These folks are really going to do it, imagine what a great gift this is for the world and it is really happening too. This is really and they are really doing it.

Maybe there is hope for humanity after all? But as they said it will not be easy to do, managing 60 Billion Dollars and giving it away without waste and efficiently as possible is one of the toughest things in the World to do. But if anyone can it will be Melinda, Bill and Warren who can get it done. Kudos to you all and thank you on behalf of the World. Consider this in 2006.
