Tonight at 11 PM ET, Bill and Melinda Gates released their Annual Letter (http://www.gatesletter.com). In it, they are making one big bet for the next 15 years: The lives of people in poor countries will improve faster in the next 15 years than at any other time in history thanks to breakthroughs in health, farming, banking, and education.
The breakthroughs they envision are:
- Half as many kids will die, far fewer women will die in childbirth, and people will live healthier lives because we’ll beat many of the diseases that sicken the poor
- Africa will be able to feed itself
- Mobile banking will help the poor radically transform their lives
- Better software will help all kids, no matter where they live, receive a world class education
Warren Buffett wrote a letter to Bill and Melinda Gates, he said: "Don't just go for safe projects. Take on the really tough problems." I believe that Bill and Melinda Gates will continue to better the lives of millions of people around the world in the next 15 years and beyond.
