I wish I did not read that. That's a bit disturbing and mind blowing if you think about it.
365 daily millionaires x 2009 years can't fix a problem with money (pallets full of 100 dollar bills as far as the eye can see...)

Maybe the source of the problem isn't money then. It's the leakage of it to the wrong people who are dishonest and disrupt the entire global system we set up as a planet that should have been checked up by governments, people we voted to be in that position, but who didn't do their jobs right or looked the other way for several reason varying from simple lazyness to guilty all the way and everything possible in between.

On the other hand, the most successfull businesses we know today were started/owned by people that lived in poverty we could not even imagine today and from there came their creativity and will to survive.
