English to Chinese: Are high-tech millionaires giving back?
Source text - English Are high-tech millionaires giving back?
update Bill Gates's charitable urges may surpass the billion-dollar mark, but the world's richest man isn't the only one with cash to spare.
Thanks to the technology-driven economy, lots of people--not just company founders and venture capitalists--continue to reap riches through ".com" IPOs, golden stock options, and skyrocketing salaries and bonuses. The question now is whether the silicon-inspired nouveau riche are willing to give back.
Because times are prosperous, new nonprofit organizations, online charity malls, and "venture philanthropy" firms are aiming to tap the do-gooder mentality of the newly rich. Some hope to educate people about how to benefit from giving away portions of their wealth, while others are backing community-oriented companies that reserve a portion of their earnings for nonprofits.
"On one hand, we're trying to show them the emotional and societal rewards, but at the same time we're trying to show them in the language of dollars and cents that budgeting charitable giving can be extremely practical and scientific," said Tim Stone, executive vice president of the Newtithing Group, a philanthropic research organization founded in 1998.
In Silicon Valley alone, tax filers earning adjusted gross income of $100,000 or more can comfortably afford to give an additional $2 billion to charity this year, according to the Newtithing's most conservative estimate. Another widely published report by the group, Affordable Donations 1999, estimated that on the whole, U.S. tax filers could donate an extra $242 billion annually.
Newtithing is just one of many organizations popping up to encourage charitable giving by those who are cashing in on the high-tech boom. The group was founded by Claude Rosenberg, a successful investor who wrote the best-selling book Wealthy and Wise: How You And America Can Get The Most Out of Your Giving, which teaches individuals a formula for giving the most they can. Later this year Newtithing will offer a free online calculator that offers similar advice.
目前此类组织纷纷涌现,鼓励高科技所造就的新贵踊跃捐赠善款,Newtithing只是其中之一。该集团由成功投资人士克劳德•卢森伯格(Claude Rosenberg)创立,他的著作《财富与智慧:如何通过捐赠利国利己》(Wealthy and Wise: How You And America Can Get The Most Out of Your Giving)成为畅销书;他在书中教给读者一条计算如何尽可能多捐献的公式 。今年稍后,Newtithing将会提供一个免费网上计算器,用以提供类似建议。
