wow....good question, my selfish side jumps to choose myself and my family...but my practical side says that if world poverty was abolished then we would all be on equal ground and wealth wouldn't matter as much.

For me it's a no-brainer. The world poverty situation is what I'd fix. Don't even have to think about that one. You may think I'm being dishonest but I can tell you I am sure of one thing and that is that I am one of the most honest people I know and more honest than most. I live on $655.04 disability a month as I have a severe spine condition and I donate $80 every month split up between heifer international, world wildlife fund, audubon and a private org. funneling money into Darfur. I don't even feel good enough about that. I also bought a flock of geese, a flock of ducks in my gransons names for christmas from heifer int. I just really think that's the way it should be and I really don't mind that I don't have good clothes and crap like that. I'd much rather feel that I may have done some little thing for someone so much worse off. If everyone felt like that and did give just a little bit so much of a difference could be made don't you think. I think heifer international is one of the very best.They do so much and it is a gift that spreads and keeps on giving. It don't stop. The reciepients have to give to another needy family when their goat has babies and on and on. Same with the cows and other animals.Great organization!

Oh uh maybe family and friends. I don't think that makes you selfish or bad or full of debauchery lol. I'm sure that there are going to be other ways to help solve world poverty, and not risk any loss of happiness and wealth for the people who are close to you and could kill you if they knew who you chose -_-

Assuming you meant "poverty" I 'd say solve world poverty. Why should I be so selfish and only provide for those I know when I could give the same thing to millions upon millions of others? 40,000 children starve to death daily, I couldn't justify ignoring that when I could've prevented it.

I would defentely choose happiness and wealth for me and my family. I would because I feel like I do what I can to help others as it is, so why not do something for myself.

If you could solve world poverty there wouldn't be any need for personal wealth.

Solve world poverty.

Myself and my family and friends. If everybody were rich, who would wait on us during our exotic vacations?
