Ohh, that reminds me. There is a site (don't know where, I've seen somebody on here post about it) where you can "micro-lend" to individuals in 3rd world countries who want to start their own business. You get to choose which business/individual you want to micro-lend to by looking at their profiles. I think their business idea/individuals have been vetted and checked. Once their business succeed, they will pay you back. Since you don't care if they pay you back, that could be a great way to help someone start their business. If they succeed and pay you back, you can then use that same money and help someone else start their own business again!
