What would you do to get rich if you knew that you couldn't die but wanted to get rich fast?

Betting? Lottery? Risky jobs? What do you think would make the most money the fastest.

If your rich you have money to donate to people who need it most.

How about building a society where the poor don't have to rely on donations from the rich?

I agree that idealy no one would have to donate to the poor, but we don't live in a society like that so if you have spair money you don't need or want you might as well donate.

And if you still don't want to donate to the poor then you can donate to other projects like funding renewable energy initiatives or open source software.

I do live in a society which has social security programs based on a shared taxes instead of relying on donations from rich. Same with offering base human needs like free healthcare and free education.
