hi lenny
''we could talk about how we are going to use our money for good purposes!!''
well here is one way lenny.
seek out favourite ideas to help others.
visit, if possible, the charitable ideas you have.
make a will. family first but i'm a believer in people should fend for themselves whenever they can as it is imo the only way people can really and truly appreciate things.
draw up your will with a solicitor and at least one executor. they must be independent of each other imo. state in your will what you wish to happen for your chosen charitable beneficiary/ies. if you plonk it tomorrow then your wishes for all the ill gotten gains you make from the obscene sharemarket will go to those you wish to help.
however, along the way, you might just be so successful that you are walking all over your ill gotten gains and wish to sweep some of it up and out. then of course you are able to show up in person and do just that.
i have done exactly this. it helps one sleep at night. there are many folk etc out there who're able to appreciate financial help but it is beyond them to do much about it for themselves. you know this already tho as i can tell from you attitude.
40 travelled back from brissy to barcelona once with an ozzie. he was the 'pilot' to yachets of one very famous and very wealthy person (who publicly stinks). the ozzie was on his way to monaco. when he pictured for me the obscenity of wealth there, i nearly vomited.
most good very successful people think as you do. they continue with their work, not for the money, but for the challenges and love of what they do. bill gates is one.
by all means help others but remember the backpackers words ...
'don't give the beggar money, buy him a fishing rod'.
be good,
40.
