[QUOTE=Nneka;22363]If I got a billion dollars from Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, or anyone else, I would open a school for K-12 that does spiritual enrichment, explores different cultures and religions, financial literacy, and teaches the usual reading, writing, and arithmetic. There would be a lot of experiential learning with annual trips to different countries for all ages.
Lucky for you NNEKA - these schools already exist and definitely cost more than a Billion dollars. Check out the Ron Clark Academy in Georgia (6 - 8)- and the K - 12 school in Iowa. Maharishi school systems. I found them by going to the SECRET.tv website and looking up John Hagelin who ran for president in 2000 on a personal development platform. I wish I would have known - I would have voted for him.
As for my billion dollars - I'd join forces with these visionaries and I would probably back someone like that for president.
