Carnegie Believes that in order to benefit the lives of other people he has to give money to help make education and peace a priority in the world. He believes that people must make their own lives, he does not want to simply give people money and help. Carnegie Builds up organizations and donates money to provide people a better way of taking control of their own life. With companies such as the Carnegie institution of Washington and the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, He hopes to provide opportunities to those less fortunate. Almost every corporation that he funds is based around education. Personally i believe that this is a great way to give money. The only counter argument that could be used is that this plan does not directly influence the lives of underprivileged people. He is leaving a giant part of progress up to the people. If i had a hundred million dollars i would give the money away in much the same way as Carnegie did. However i would be more focused on the advancement of the scientific community than he was. I would spend it all funding research projects for things such as stem cell research and quantum physics.
