My suggestion to all venture philanthropists is to participate in ''The Rolling Jubilee'' movement.

Buy 1 Million Dollars worth of debt for 50,000 Dollars and abolish it. Imagine what Bill Gates and Warren Buffett could do if they each donate 1 billion Dollars to this cause. With 2 billion Dollars 40 billion Dollars of debt could be immediately wiped out.

This shows early testing of a farm machine that could have significant implications for the US economy.

It would make the most sense if these were personally owned by farm workers since they could then enable them to do more effective, less injurious work on the various farms where they are seasonally employed.

Humility?

Wash some feet.

Abase yourself dear.

CORRECTION - re: non-trivial typographical error

In the fourth sentence of my comment below, please do read "debated" (not 'devoted'). Oops! Sorry!

"VENTURE PHILANTHROPY"

Max83, as the Nike slogan says, "Just go for it." There is your book title right there, VENTURE PHILANTHROPY. I speculate that if you watch Africa you may see that Microsoft is a big player there subsequent to or in tandem with the philanthropic activities of Mr. Gates. I am sure the ethics of this may be devoted both ways. I am also inclined to think that each case of "venture philanthropy" is unique. The construction of a medical facility to treat AIDS, for example, is not necessarily the same thing as the sale of poisoned blankets to indigenous populations, though some persons are wedded to the idea that white people created the AIDS virus in order to wipe out Africans. As well, Berkshire-Hathaway (Warren Buffett) is active in Africa. IMHO these two examples are only two positive examples of "venture philanthropy".

The way her brain functions during speech is quite interesting as well as the size differential between her left and right eye.

Comparing and contrasting brain scans of her and http://www.ericgreitens.com/ may prove quite interesting.

This is a very interesting person and focus in my opinion, strategic philanthropy.

I would like to know in how much spiritual factors play into the role of strategic philanthropy.

In my opinion it is very important to give holistically, especially in terms of educating the young and in terms of teaching them a solid spiritual foundation. Especially the universal law of cause and effect also referred to as Karma by some when it comes to business and economics.

I would like to recommend the book ''Creating Money: Attracting Abundance Book'' by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer to Mrs. Arrillaga-Andreessen. Here the link: http://www.orindaben.com/catalog/prodno/cm/

I spent 6 months in Palo Alto in 1997 and attended the German-American School in Menlo Park. My father was a member of the 1997 Sloan Program at the Stanford School of Business. I met very interesting people there and had a very good time meeting people from all walks of life. Venture Capitalists from Woodside, CA to underprivileged children my age across the Highway in East Palo Alto, which at that time had the highest per capita murder rate in the USA. Truly a very transformative and educational time for me personally.

I wish you all the very best in your philanthropy adventures.

We should coin a new term for people like Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen: ''Venture Philanthropists''
