I am not much for inspirational stories but this story is pretty impressive.

Nice. You may also enjoy this story. It's local, not quite as large, but impressive nonetheless.

If I happened to be wealthy like those guys, I'd probably give a big chunk of it to worthy causes. I mean, you can't take it with you.......

As it is, we give $50 a month to a charity that helps developing nations' children.

I didn't mean just the giving away money part.

The whole idea of escaping from the Nazis, escaping from the Communists, then becoming a multi-millionairre, then giving it all away.

Makes my life seem pretty insignificant.

I'm thinking most lives are pretty significant. Especially to the people you share it with.

You mean like my aquarium?

I'd probly donate a huge marine exhibit to the zoo so that people could learn more about the things we all love.
