Money advice from the man I'll likely vote for next time around

I like Bloomberg. I'm still not exactly sure why sometimes, but I do. This is part of the reason.

from the NY PostJanuary 11, 2005 -- Mayor Michael Bloomberg may be getting ready to sell his financial information giant to fund a mammoth philanthropic effort after he quits public office.
Bloomberg L.P. — the media and financial information company that is the source of much of his wealth — will be sold to finance the charitable binge, he said recently.

"I will not go back to the company," he said. "What I'd like to do is eventually I will sell because if I don't, my estate will have to, and I want to run a foundation."

Bloomberg said he views the charitable giving of Microsoft founder Bill Gates and wife Melinda as a model he'd like to emulate.

Bloomberg left little doubt that night at the 92nd Street Y what his ultimate goal in life will be after politics. "Going out and spending the rest of my life giving it all away would be great," he said.

"Somebody once said that the ultimate in financial planning is to bounce the check to the undertaker. I'm going to try to do that."

ultimate until they dig you up again and leave you by the side of the road.
