I sent him .1 .... will send him more later.  If we don't get him at least 100 BTC I am going to be really upset with the bitcoin community.

Yes sent money to a millionaire in the hopes that it will convince him to let you donate more money to his foundation which relies on donations?

Hell 0.1 BTC could have bought a lot of meals for homeless people but if you want to give money to the 1% to convince them to use Bitcoin well I guess that is your right.


If the 1% decide to use Bitcoin it could be very beneficial to us don't you think?

I think it is a good idea to convince them to take a risk on Bitcoin.  They can learn first hand what it can do for them.  But I agree that it is pretty ridiculous in some ways.  But millionaires often become millionaires by not spending their money and making more in creative ways.  Otherwise they wouldn't have any money.
