When we talk about Bill Gates, we may first think of the title of "the richest man in the world", while when we talk about Ye Qingjun, the label of "legendary futures tycoon" comes to mind at first. But has anyone ever cared about the story behind them, and everyone worships the way they become super-rich, but has anyone seriously thought about why they carry so much wealth?
Ye Qingjun, who has repeatedly exploded positions, was once desperate to jump off a building, but God will definitely reward those who are virtuous. With keen insight and extraordinary courage and determination, he started from 1, yuan and is now worth tens of billions, so he is called "Soros of China". In Zhejiang's capital circle, Ye Dahu is respected in it, and all his gestures can cause funds to follow suit, which is enough to form a force that can shake the market. The market calls it "Nandi" worthy of the name.
After all, "myth" can't replace "apotheosis". The Dunhe system where Ye Daji is located, like other private placements, struggles hard in the front line of the market every day. Domestic commodities, stocks, options, foreign exchange, American debt, American coffee ... have his presence in various investment sections at home and abroad. He has a very flexible investment method, which can not only control the trend market, but also trade in spreads.
The outside world misinformed that he was assisted by many long-term and short-term military advisers, but I didn't know that he had been relying only on his lonely wisdom and extraordinary determination. I would like to take this opportunity to correct a misunderstanding on the Internet by the way. The following two most frequently used photos on the Internet are not Ye Dahu himself, right, not him!
Ye Dahu himself is devoted to public welfare except investing and trading to make money. He is so low-key that he hardly accepts any media interviews, but he often becomes the topic center in the investment circle, and few people pay attention to his charity.
A large part of the charitable donations of Dunhe Charity Fund, which he initiated, came from their own financial investment income (securities and futures), and their innate wealth management genes. With the advantages of Dunhe Asset Management, Dunhe Foundation's performance in asset preservation and appreciation is unparalleled, and there is no common problem that other foundations are weak and hesitant. However, Dunhe Foundation is as low-key as Ye Dahu himself, without official website, and its information is limited. However, there is Dunhe Foundation behind many public welfare organizations and public welfare projects, which can be called the foundation of the foundation. The donations of Dunhe Foundation over the years have been high-handed, but low-key, and the style is exactly the same as that of Ye Qingjun himself. Since Ye Qingjun initiated the establishment of Dunhe Charity Foundation in 212, it has always been positioned as a "resource provider of non-governmental public welfare and social innovation", and in the two general directions of public welfare support and inheritance of Chinese culture, Dunhe Foundation's funding areas in recent years cover education, medical care, environmental protection, poverty alleviation, disaster relief, as well as faith and culture. ?
Ye Dahu seldom communicates with the outside world. At the China Futures Professional Investor Club jointly sponsored by Dashang Institute and Qihe. com, Ye Dahu once had a rare in-depth sharing with everyone. Besides, he didn't use online social media accounts. Following the thought of Heaven, he believed that everything in the universe had laws and destiny, and the Book of Changes was the ultimate mystery he had to explore all his life. Ye Qingjun, who lives a simple life, revolves around trading almost every day, so it is extremely difficult for the outside world to obtain some personal identity information and dynamics about it, not to mention his low-key charitable donations.
Almost all of us, the original intention of investing is to get wealth or even become a rich man. But when we really get rich one day, most of us should consider how to make ourselves better off and how to make our children and grandchildren better off. But how many people will think: How can I make others better off now? Make this society a better place? Don't say, "We don't have as much money as Mr. Ye, so what can we do for charity? If I have so much money in the future, I will donate it." Bill Gates, the richest man, will tell you that charity is not just about donating money.
Different from Mr. Ye, Bill Gates, who is an open education, is a veteran of social media in Weibo. His words and deeds are published on his Twitter account, including his second venture: charity.
Today, Bill Gates is not as busy with making money as Ye Dahu. Since he "retired" from Microsoft nine years ago, he has devoted 8% of his energy to charity. Although Bill Gates doesn't seem to have the scenery anymore, and he doesn't occupy the headlines like Zuckerberg and other tech giants, what he does may stand the test of time and have a greater impact on all mankind. He is a rich man with real love.
In Gates' view, computers can't change poverty, but raising chickens can. If you want to be rich, raise chickens first! In 216, the Gates Foundation launched a campaign to donate 1, chickens. These 1, chickens will be distributed to more than 2 developing countries, from Burkina Faso to rural areas in Bolivia. Because he believes that chickens need little care, and eggs and chicken can also promote family nutrition. If a family raises 25 chickens a year, the family income will be $1,25, which has far exceeded the poverty line of $7 in these areas. He also plans to invest $4 million in this chicken raising plan every year.
In addition to raising chickens, Gates personally went to the dairy farm in Australia to learn from the scriptures, because he wanted to help increase the milk production of cows in Ethiopia, Europe, so as to increase the income of local residents. He also invested a lot of money to improve the genes of local bulls to improve the quality of cows, and he once happily wrote a blog called "How Cowboys Teach Us to Feed the Whole World".
But the most amazing thing is that in 215, Gates publicly drank a glass of water made of human excrement. Because he believes that this high-tech technology can supply clean drinking water for developing countries. The Gates Foundation funded Janicki Bioenergy, a biological company in Seattle. Their technology can turn sludge such as feces and sewers into water and electricity, and the generated water can be drunk by people. The generated electricity is to ensure that Sierra Leone, a country with the third highest neonatal mortality rate in the world, has supplied huge sums of money to develop a large number of malaria vaccines, and the generated electricity is to ensure the care of infants and the preservation of vaccines for childhood diseases.
In the past 25 years, 122 million children under the age of five have been helped, which is the proudest data of Gates. To this day, he still firmly believes that "saving children's lives is their mission to promote global work."
In Gates' eyes, the purpose of setting up this foundation is very clear, and it is not to donate money and grant aid. This role is not enough. The real charity should be to guide scientific ability to research that has an impact on the lives of the poor and help countries spend their money in the most important places. At the end of his letter to Buffett, Gates said without hesitation that philanthropy has proved to be the best job in the world and the best return on investment. "We won't let you down."
Indeed, charity is the best return on investment, and there must be good results when good causes are planted. Just like Gates and Ye Dahu, each of us should be rich in such great love. No matter how much wealth we carry, no matter how glorious we have enjoyed, and even no matter what social class we are in, this spirit and thought of kindness and great love should be kept and passed down indefinitely to share and create more value and significance for the society and others. This is a truly great person.
in this way, our world will become better, each of us will live a happier life, and we will also be loaded with things because of virtue, just like investment transactions. Only if we are willing to pay, will we get feedback from the market, and we will blindly stare at the harvest, selfish, paranoid and greedy, and we will certainly not be favored by God.
