I strongly believe that those of us who are privileged to have wealth should contribute significantly to try and create a better world for the millions who are far less privileged.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I believe that people of substantial wealth potentially create problems for future generations unless they themselves accept responsibility to use their wealth during their lifetime to help worthwhile causes.
We have to find a way to make the aspects of capitalism that serve wealthier people serve poorer people as well.
I have been very fortunate to be successful in business, and I believe that it is right that people who have this type of wealth should give something back into society.
Those of us who have yet to find philanthropy may find there is a far greater reward from it than from wealth creation.
We can't leave people in abject poverty, so we need to raise the standard of living for 80% of the world's people, while bringing it down considerably for the 20% who are destroying our natural resources.
I believe with great fortunes come great responsibility, so with our family's assets and many wealthy friends, we could help raise a lot of money to help others.
We are privileged. There are poor people out there. We must to do something to make them privileged.
In the wealthiest nation on Earth, no one who works a full time job should have to live in poverty. That's a fundamental value proposition, an article of faith in our country that I know an overwhelming majority of Americans agree on.
Our main task is not to see that people of great wealth add to it, but that those without much money have a greater chance to earn some.
I believe wealth should be in the hands of those who know how to create more wealth.
