One organisation???

[Aemaeth]

I recently saw an add for this one organization, it where these celebs talk about not spending money recklessly, that just irratates me these people saying we must'nt spend or money recklessly, because it impacts the poor countries(such as in Africa) badly.

They are ones to talk i mean the top 225 richest people in the world are richer than the rest of the world, they are the ones spending money recklessly with there fancy cars and houses, exactly where do they get of.

Your views please.

Sounds a bit like FAG from team america.

the way is see it is people who have to save everypenny to be rich should keep there money but people who earn by our money ssuch as paris hilton or jlo's 2 million dollar *** should donate to organisations which jlo does

[FONT=&quot]Are you retarded? J-Lo has earned her money and she deserves every last penny of it. Why don't you make 2 million dollars, ah? It's not that easy is it now? Also you are jealous of people who have had the fortune of being born in a rich family like Paris. Paris is now actually running her own company and is making masses of moment from Paris Hilton branded products. You know, you don't even have to feel bad about the fact that you were born loaded, to hell with it take it for granted. This is exactly the kind of "racism" that I was referring to in my earlier posts.

Don't feel a grudge agains people who waist money, they do it because they can!

[/FONT] Rich people are being harassed anyway by the governments around the world. They pay masses more income tax. Everyone should pay the same amount to have a fair society. Our societies are advantageous towards people who have low income.

Edit: BTW 2 million is pennies in the eyes of the real "rich" people.

[[/sarcasm]]

Lmao... Rich people are harassed because they have to pay more income tax... They pay more income tax because they have more income. Everyone pays the same rate of income tax, but if you make more, you should be expected to contribute more to the government.

If you didn't know then in most countries around the world the persentage of incame tax to be payed increases as the income does. (assuming you live in the US sarcasm, it is the case there)

First, I like how we do it in the us, rate stays the same.

2nd- you said people sounds racist, umm, if money is non-denomonational and is worth the same to everyone in that country, how is that racist? You just took it a step farther than needed be. That's all. No harm.

Yea this not about racism, its about stars preaching one thing and doing another

True, true sorry for going off topic. It's just that people who have no idea about making money are making statements it this thread how rich people should not be allowed to keep their money and it should be given away to charity just because they have earned it through e.g. singing.

I wouldn't put Celebs into the list of 225 mentioned by Frogman. Currently there are 691 billionaires in the world, most Celebs have a couple of million and that's it. I also don't agree with the statement that the top 225 people are spending money recklessly. Reckless spending means spending money without any concept of reality, kind of like the easy come easy go way. The top 691 on the other hand can spend masses but they also make masses at the same time, Celebs tend to spend themselves into bankrupts. Now that's reckless spending.

Celebs have been long known for making outrageous statements. The way how an average westerner spends his money has almost no effect on any of the third world countries. It's a load of bull to state that the contrary. What does have an affect though is whether the top 691 people or major companies are going to invest into those countries.

Managers are always telling them stuff to say to make them stand out from the rest and hence make more money. They are also in the position to say "good" things in public because they are major public figures hence the name celebrities. I wouldn't pay too much attention to celebrities though they are just puppets.

you mean hypocrisy

[slimp]

asking a rich person to part with their money is like asking slimp to give up his cake.

foog... that hurts, anyways why does everyone who knows me "kinda" and just know im fat are like Slimp must like cake cause he's fat, i don't care for cake, id rather some icecream or pizza Or corndogs or fettuchini alfredo, i was reading this whole thread like i do with most, u know... reading fraters posts which are always long and i saw that, it just hurt... just... hurt.

ummm pyro i know im above u... in everything + on this, but what are u talking about? ummm i already publicly advertised that i was fat before.. maybe u weren't around then or something, I had a picture of my stomach as sig until foog made me a sig, lol... anyways Pyro i suggest u shaddup (look down)

[pyrocrow]

I didn't know you were fat, but now that you publicly advertised it to everyone...lets just say you can't have your cake or eat it either. wow that was incredibly weak.
