Liberty Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 [amazonsearch]The Billionaire Who Wasn't[/amazonsearch] One of the best and most inspiring books I've read in a while. Chuck Feeney is not only a great businessman and investor, but also a most special kind of philanthropist. I highly recommend that you check out this book.
Liberty Posted January 6, 2017 Author Posted January 6, 2017 More people should read this great book. Maybe this piece in the NYT will help spread the word: http://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/05/nyregion/james-bond-of-philanthropy-gives-away-the-last-of-his-fortune.html
KCLarkin Posted January 6, 2017 Posted January 6, 2017 Thanks Liberty. Never heard of it before but added to my list. -- Edit: His ancestors come from the same county in Northern Ireland as my grandmother.
