What would your philanthropy be if you were a multibillionaire?

Bill Gates uses his wealth (and the help of Bono) to fight HIV and famine in Africa.

Elon Musk uses his wealth to expedite mankind's conquering of our final frontier.

The Koch brothers use their wealth to rig the game in their favour and create more wealth.

What would you do if your next great idea turns into the next Twitter, mate?

Personally, I'd build a high tech submarine with the latest and greatest radar and sonar. I'd take it this craft, named "Godfrey of Bouillon" after the great Christian Crusader, and I'd equip it with a retractable arm at the hull. This arm would be in the shape of Christ's burden, the Old Rugged Cross, and it would be filed to a razor-sharp point.

Based in beautiful Amalfi, I would head out on "Godfrey" each evening at sundown, playing "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "Onward, Christian Soldiers" interspersed with Orthodox Gregorian Chants as I intently scan my monitors for signs of invaders......

Upon locating these floating incubators of malaria, tuberculosis, and bestiality with a pinch of paedophilia, I'd calmly press the button which activates the arm from the hull, ascend from the dark, inky sea, and strike a bawdy and hearty blow for all of Christendom.

Raising awareness that people need to be aware.

homelessness

build legit shelters that actually help those who are on hard times. educate them, basically give them the means to better themselves in any way.

In the United States it would be Education.

Internationally, I would focus on areas where people have absolutely nothing and get them access to whatever is possible to give them access to.

I'd focus on raising awareness of mental illness and providing adequate mental health services to people of all ages, but particularly veterans. The VA is a joke and I see too many people, veterans and non-vets, who receive inadequate care or no care at all until they reach a psychiatric crisis.

St Jude Children's Hospital

I can't tell you how many kids that I know that this hospital has saved.

I already give them quite a bit but I would give enough for them to be able to find a cure.

I would have two.

A foundation for organ transplants. No child would ever be denied an organ transplant based on inability to pay.

A prosthetic limb foundation. No child or any veteran who lost a limb due to military service would ever be without a good prosthetic.

Alleviating crime and poverty in black neighborhoods.

Not lighting it on fire for a vanity project like global warming or pretending I give a shite about dirt farmers overseas. We have plenty of shite needing fixed here

Anything animal related.

No fricking way would I do anything to help the homeless. Most of them are that way by choice (gutter punks), or by poor choices they've made in life.

I'd only help those that are absolutely helpless and can't help themselves, so animals and children.
