was busy counting the number of zeroes when reading the newspaper jus now.. lol..
really admire Warren Buffett for his generousity.. and also the fact that he is donating to the foundations which his 'rival' Bill Gates is the founder.. he could well afford to set up his own charity fund/ foundation named aft him lor.. but no, cos he believe in the work the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is doing..
i hope this can set a good example for the super riches to come forward to help the poor.. i hav this impression that these ppl are not as forthcoming as their poorer counterparts when it comes to donating for a good cause.. esp true in china.. 正所谓“取诸社会，用诸社会” 做人得懂得知恩图报， 饮水思源。 而且毕竟钱是生不带来，死不带走的身外物。自己的子女也无需需要这么大笔的钱。。
hmmm, thinking about one of the three basic philo ques now.. why are we here?? i seriously dunno why.. but with regard to a chinese idiom "人生如梦"，觉得蛮对的。just like what john keynes say, 'in the long run we are all dead'. all the things we humans spent yrs or e whole life acheiving actually come to nought the moment we stop breathing.. quite a scary thought, i must say.. so why work/fought (in real sense) so hard when we'll be six feet under a century later? why did ppl not realise this point and make this world a less complicated & materialistic and a better environment to live in? 毕竟“本是同根生， 相煎何太急？”
