The good, the bad and the extremely generous

When do you have enough money? how many yatchs, limousines ang luxury homes can one millionair use? What can rich people do with all that money? They can not take it with them when they die...or can they?
BRIAN WILLIAMSON, one of Britain's richest men, thinks he can. He has spenton building a palace inspired by Versailles and the White House. But he is not planning to live in it-not while he is still alive any way. When he dies, he will be buried in it with his art and furniture collection. It is a monument to him self. Williamson managed to make his money by investing in property. He was a millionaire by the age of 22. He has five children by three different mothers, but his children will not inherit any of fortune. The purpose of Arilington Palace's say Williamson"is to take my money with me when i die and to make sure that nobody else gets their hands on it.ERIC MILLER has a rather different attidute to money. Whwn he retired, he sold his business and make a very large profit. He then moved out of his seven-bedroom ang move into a carnavan at the end of his parent. He donated the house to the Catholic church, so that it could be used as a holiday for disabled children. "All my life i have been worried about the poor", explains Mr Miller. "I do not want to be selfish. I am quite happy living in my caravan".For MIKE and KATHY DAWSON it is simple: the more they earn, the more they give away. Ten yaers ago, they were earning enough to own three large houses, several expensive cars and still save some money each month. Then their employer doubled their salary making them into millionaires. At this point they decided that they did not need any more money to live on and chose to give it away.
Each month they give away any extra money they make to children's charities around the world " i believe you become a millionaire" says Mike Dawson, when you give away 1 million dollar.
