The Amazingly Generous Pickens

May 25, 2008

After checking out my Technorati profile, I browsed the net and came across a news about the $100 Million academic gift to Oklahoma State University. Wow, what a lucky university! I then read the news and became even amazed to the person behind the said $100 million gift. The donor’s name is T.Bonne Pickens who is an alumnus of OSU.

I searched about T.Bonne Pickens and found out that he is in the Chronicle of Philanthropy’s list of top U.S. philanthropists and has now given over than $700 million to philanthropy! Whew! I can not contain my admiration to his generosity in giving away huge sum of money to help improve the lives of so many people as well as to his exceptional capacity of earning enormous sum of money.

He is so awesome and sure a very fortunate individual on Earth tasked to make & multiply money tremendously.  I hope that all rich individuals around the globe will be as generous as Pickens because if that happens, the scarcity in the world will significantly reduce.
