I was just randomly thinking...
Bill Gates has like what 40+ Billion USD?
The world population is estimated to be almost 7 Billion?
If he gave 1 Billion USD to each person in the world, wouldn't we all be rich?
And he would still have 30+ Billion..
I mean would that technically end world hunger/poverty?
....
Wow my math is bad;
I just read my shit over, NEVER FREAKIN MIND.. o...m...g

I dont understand the math
|
...
7 billion is: 7,000,000,000.
He would need 7,000,000,000,000,000,000 (not sure, got dizzy) USD to give them all 1 billion USD.

Even if the math actually worked out a bit more in your favor...
you can't create wealth by playing games with pieces of paper that say $ on them. Economies are more complicated than that.

way to make yourself look like a complete retard lol

dawg, a billion time 7 billions is a lot of billions. its like giving a billion bucks to 7 billion people. like you said. or giving 7 billion bucks to a billion people.. b4 you even checking your math to see if it was right, you shoulda known it didnt make sense in the first place. good try tho. try to start another topic now.

It's not possible if you're gay.

Bill Gates could give everyone in the world 6 dollars, and we will all be poor.

But if everyone was rich, the everything would be inflated and the money would be worthless, economics wouldn't allow everyone to be rich.

122$ goes a long way for third world countries :s

well rich is a relative term
even the moderately poor live better than the middle class/rich people of 500 years ago

Let's just say somehow, it did work out...
I don't think inflation works like that? I could be wrong, I think I am BUT... they're not making any more money or adding any more paper to the system. Just spreading it out more.
But ok, what if the top 100 richest people only gave money to people who were making less than 25k/year.
Would that be more possible? Sigh whatever, I just get sad when I see the distance from the richest to the poorest.
Like someone else said, $122 USD is a lot for a family in a struggling country.

I'm guessing you mean 1 million USD to each person instead of 1 billion? And even if so obv. that doesn't work out.... He could however give about $5.50 to everyone in the world.

This is kind of what the Weimar Republic tried to do. Printing lots of money. The only result was extra zero's on pricetags. My great grandfather Stored piles of Deutsch Marks on his attic. My grandfather and his siblings were litterally throwing with money and swimming in it lol.
