phoenix Posted October 19, 2011 Author Share Posted October 19, 2011 How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Ask Andrew. Fae Fife ye ken , Dunfermline. Famous for being the Bill Gates of his era and giving it all away. As early as 1868, at age 33, he drafted a memo to himself. He wrote: "...The amassing of wealth is one of the worse species of idolatry. No idol more debasing than the worship of money." In order to avoid degrading himself, he wrote in the same memo he would retire at age 35 to pursue the practice of philanthropic giving for: "...the man who dies thus rich dies disgraced." Before his death on 11 August 1919, Mr. Carnegie had donated $350,695,654 (approximately $4.3 billion, adjusted to 2005 figures) for various causes. The 'Andrew Carnegie Dictum' illustrates Carnegie's generous nature: To spend the first third of one's life getting all the education one can.To spend the next third making all the money one can.To spend the last third giving it all away for worthwhile causes.Andrew Carnegie was involved in philanthropist causes, but he kept himself away from religious circles.He wanted to be identified by the world as a 'positivist'. He was highly influenced in public life by John Bright. Scotland's # 1 :thumbs: Link to comment

OddJob Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Well 50% of the band is dead so it would be a struggle.Julian Lennon and Dhari Harrison are the spitting images of their dads so could easily form a New Beatles with Ringo & Paul Link to comment
