It’s always good to give back to the community/world, especially if you’re very successful. There are many ways to give back, but I would have to say, my all-time favourite would have to be the World Vision catalogue, because you get to buy gifts for people in third-world countries. There are gifts in there such as vitamins, or food, but there is a saying that goes: Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. So, naturally, being the businessboy I am, I bought someone a home business. A bee farm kit with a hive, in fact! The perfect gift that keeps on giving. Stings, that is! No, I’m just kidding. But there are also some things in there that cost a lot of money, such as the 15,000 dollar well that will provide a village with water for all of eternity!
So if you feel you need to prepare yourself for the business world and take some responsibility, start a fund-raising campaign in your school and try to buy a well for a village, or even a school for a village! (which also costs 15,000 dollars) If you want to watch an inspirational story about a 7-year-old boy who decided to do just that, rent the movie called Ryan’s Well. It’s a very good story. Now go donate!
