I'd like to think that I'd turn into some sort of awesome philanthropist if I became *seriously* rich but I'd probably just stockpile cash and buy amazing overpriced stuff. :(

I'd be a philanthropist to my friends and family, or some random down on luck dude on the street, otherwise probably not.

If i got booze, internet, noms and a roof i'm happy as can be, so extra cash usually goes to getting more of those :p

Would be excellent to be able to go to some homeless guy and drop 20k on his lap and say "That should get you going", even if most people would say "Oh no he'll just drink it", but dun matter, atlaest it's a chance.

Bill Gates once said something along the lines of "Once you've made your first 1billion every 1million after that just feels meaningless" if thats true he can give the other fucking 60billion to me the speccy cunt.

He's given most of his fortune away to good causes anyway, his foundation does a LOT of good work. Not that's he not still minted, but a good guy.

A few of the top 10 do

Oh yeah, not saying they don't, just that he gave over half his fortune to his foundation did he not? Think Buffet is another major contributor to Gates foundation.

Afaik no one has ever given away a fortune the size of the one that Gates is working on, by the time he dies it could be well in excess of $100 billion as it is still growing due to donations like the $1.5 billion in shares from Warren Buffet and a huge amount of interest that accrue's annually on the initial capital plus the additions that Bill keeps making. He may well end up having a postive effect on more lives than any private individual in human history as the decades roll by. He might be a grumpy bastard but he has a good soul.

When Bill Gates died, he went up to Heaven, where Saint Peter
showed him to his house; a beautiful 20 room house, with grounds
and a tennis court. Bill Gates was pleased, and spent many
months enjoying the amenities of Heaven.

One day, he was enjoying one of Heaven's many fine parks, when
he ran into a man dressed in a fine tailored suit.

"That is a nice suit, my friend," said Gates. "Where did you
get it?"

"Actually," the man replied, "I was given a hundred of these
when I got here. I've been treated really well. I got a mansion
on a hill overlooking a beautiful hill, with a huge five-hundred
acre estate, a golf course, and three Rolls Royces."

"Were you a Pope, or a doctor healing the sick?" asked Gates.

"No," said his new friend, "Actually, I was the captain of the
Titanic."

Hearing this made Gates so angry that he immediately stalked off
to find St. Peter.

Cornering Peter, he told him about the man he had just met, saying,
"How could you give me a paltry new house, while you're showering
new cars, a mansion, and fine suits on the Captain of the Titanic?
I invented the Windows operating system! Why does he deserve
better?"

"Yes, but we use Windows here," replied Peter, "and the Titanic only
crashed once."

I used to pretend to like them and swallow them whole. Love them now.
