+298 You know how your parents convince you to be thankful by saying, "There's a starving kid in Africa that is more grateful for what he has than you"? It's weird to think that Bill Gates may tell his son, "There are kids out there whose parents aren't billionaires. You are so much more fortunate than those kids." You've never really though of yourself as less fortunate, amirite?

Since you used Bill Gates, you should know that the Bill Gates Foundation has given out over 26 Billion dollars in grant commitments as well as 15 billion dollars to Global Health, 6 billion for United States Poverty, 4 Billion dollars for Global Development, among other amounts. i mean Bill Gates doesn't seem like the specific example you should have used.

I realize Bill Gate's contribution to these foundations, which means that he probably teaches his kids to be thankful because of his experience working with the less fortunate.
