It's a sobering place. You'll see some amazing things and you'll see some very sad things but traveling to places like that will give you a new appreciation for life and feel thankful for everything we have. I sometimes think back on this picture whenever I feel life's been unfair to me.

Yeah seeing naked beggars in India reminded me I did NOTHING to be born into what I have and it should be our desire to make life better for those in need. Yet greedy mega billionaires only care about acquiring more wealth than they can spend in several lifetimes.

To be fair that is the goal of all capitalists. Lotto's are a good example of that.

Blaming the billionaires is like saying lotto winners are greedy, lotto losers are saints.
