Why give a million dollars to someone if they have not proved that they can make a million dollars?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No one can earn a million dollars honestly.
If you have millions of dollars you are not going to get to continue doing what you want. You are into a world of commitment to that money and all the people that helped you get that money.
You can do the same thing with $20 million that you would do with $50 million. So at a certain point in your life and in your career, you realise that it's not about the money.
Why would you give money to somebody whose work you don't understand?
I have made more money than I ever thought anybody should ever make. But who cares if you're worth $500 million or $1 billion? That is not what I want to be remembered for, but for giving something back.
In America, if you don't do a 100 million dollars, you've done nothing.
Making a million dollars is the simplest thing in the world. Just find a product that sells for $2,000 and that you can buy at a cost of $1,000, and sell a thousand of them.
Why should someone who has $5 billion only give away $2.5 billion? They can't take it with them.
If people are going to give, they're going to give. And it doesn't matter if you give a dollar or five dollars or a hundred dollars or a million dollars; it's all according to your ability.
You don't have to raise millions of dollars to be successful, you just have to work on something you are passionate about.
