Greeting All: I would like to share my feedback I wrote on 9/22/13. Thanks to Ben for this news article,Jackey and RT for your feedback. May I share mine? Bill Gates and Warren Buffett are rich but look at them, they are getting old and so are we...getting closer closer to death. Also when one day we are in the coffin, we cannot take anything with us or they cannot their billion dollars with them. It is foolish to keep something that cannot be spent. Dust they came from, dust they will return (Genesis 2:7, 3:19; Ecclesiastes 12:7). Someone needs to pray and preach the gospel to them; hurry up, whoever he or she is! Please pray for their salvation because we love their souls. They need to be rich or wealthiest in Christ or they will be doomed like any unrepentant sinner. So, please pray for them to be rich in heaven.
The Bible or Jesus clearly says their conditions in a few Scriptures: (1) In Matthew 19 :21,23,24, Jesus said to the rich ruler, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me...Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God”; and also (2) Jesus said in Matthew 16:26, "For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?" It looks like both of Bill and Warren did not choose to follow Jesus, so they are more trouble than many or some of you. Do not admire them but make sure you take this message seriously and be wise, not foolish. Seek after God. RT shared something similar but not exactly what the Bible says. He did give us some insights of the fragile of a life. He is alert.
All you need to think first is your eternity. Your eternal life cannot be purchased with money but all you need to do is simply humbly open your heart and mouth to call on Jesus and follow Him. You are then richer than all these earthly rich men and women. Far far greater. You should rejoice. Check out my website www.royalcrownlife.org. I look forward to receive my glory, my crown of life, and my honor from my dear Lord Jesus Christ when I see Him face to face. I am ready to go but God keeps me here on earth for a mission call - to save more souls. I am forever His favorite girl, the princess of my King of all kings, the Glorious Father who owns everything, above in heaven, here on earth, and the hell below. I am a coheir with Christ (Romans 8:17; Galatians 3:29, 4:7). I am going to obtain His promised eternal inheritance (Ephesians 1:11, 18, Hebrews 9:15). He is the owner of everything for He made them all. Come on! Be realistic. The truth is the truth and no other power greater than God's sovereignty and His power can change this truth or fact. I encourage you all to take this into your heart and think and pray. Not to be shortsighted. Love you all! Be rich in Christ I pray! Love forever in Christ, Esther, your servant "

Usually during the economic downturn, most companies would cut cost by slimming down their manpower. Employees are expected to work harder, produce more with less. When the economy turns around, companies would generate more revenue and profit. Unfortunately employees are still expected to carry more and heavier loads of work and responsibilities with no significant pay raises. Some companies would only hire part timers to relieve the workload.
When the companies bottom lines go up, their stock prices would go up accordingly. So the rich get richer. The poor will simply get poorer. It always takes money to make more money. But when you are living on paycheck to paycheck and barely making ends meet, how the hell would you have money to make more money? The poor would have very little chance or no chance at all to get out of the poverty.
No matter who is in the White House, nothing will be changed much, unless we have a drastic reform on our political, social, legal and tax systems that would benefit the majority of Americans and not the special elite group of the privileged 1%.

From: RT "Die anyway,then what? Someone once said it would be better to give all their riches to the poor and come follow the path to cohesive harmony with Mother Earth, than play the foolish role of god."

From the news:
The Rich are Richer than ever...
("WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGH TIMES WOULD BE SO GREAT UNDER THIS ANTI-CAPITALIST OF A PRESIDENT!)
The combined wealth of the 400 richest Americans topped $2 trillion, according to Forbes magazine. Microsoft founder Bill Gates and famed investor Warren Buffett were first and second richest.
The 400 richest Americans are the richest they've ever been, according to Forbes magazine.
The combined net worth of the people on the list hit a record $2.02 trillion, up 19% from last year's total of $1.7 trillion, thanks in large part to a strong stock market and a real estate recovery. The average net worth of members of this year's list is $5 billion, up $800 million from a year ago.
Microsoft (MSFT, Fortune 500) founder Bill Gates took the top spot as the richest American for the 20th year in a row, with a personal fortune of $72 billion. Berkshire Hathaway's (BRKA, Fortune 500) Warren Buffet came in second with a net worth of $58.5 billion. Buffet also posted the biggest dollar gains on this year's list, with his wealth climbing a staggering $12.5 billion.
Mark Zuckerberg also had a good year, thanks to the rebound in Facebook's (FB) share price. After dropping to number 36 last year, he returned to the top 20 with a personal fortune of $19 billion. His gain of $9.6 billion made him this year's second-biggest gainer.
Related: China's new richest man worth $22 billion. It took a lot more money to make this year's list, with the minimum net worth set at $1.3 billion. That meant that 28 people from last year dropped off the list, including T. Boone Pickens, whose wealth dipped to $950 million.
Forty-eight women also made the 2013 list, including Hyatt Hotels heiress Jennifer Pritzker, who was formerly known as James Pritzker, and is the first transgender billionaire, according to Forbes.
Meet the craft beer billionaire. Most of this year's billionaires had a good year: 314 members saw their fortunes climb this year, while only 30 members saw their net worth decline.
