...then, first of all, I would choose the same things to be done as he did:
I would seek some interesting people and help them to solve their problems. And my search
would be in the same area: among scientists, art and culture figures, among youth and
students in particular. |

In the second place, I would devoted a part of my time and invested a part of my
money to fight with irregularity of mankind development on Earth.
Formally I was impressed deeply by words of academician A.D.Alexandrov,
who cited the view of a priest that all troubles on Earth happen because
there is too mush of science at one end of mankind and too little of it
- on the other end.
Indeed, that's time to push into the foreground a problem to provide the
wellbeing for as much as possible number of humans, isn't it?
Fisrtly, to my mind, the wellbeing is rather clear category: it means
the absence of cold, starvation and illness. Secondly, it is
rather clear for what countries and kinds of people the problem of
absence of wellbeing arises.
Thirdly, when solving the problem of elimination of trouble we can see
our own position in more balanced and objective manner, we can be
convinced evidently what of our needs are essential, and what of them
are forced ones.

All that I said doesn't mean, that I order everyone to
be engaged in the problem described above. But for persons, who became
wealthy, soon or later the question arises: what can I do afterwards?
Further development, I think, is to share with other humans and to do it
sensibly. If one cannot share with his own ideas or works of his
hands and mind, then he must share with money to equalize the levels of
wellbeing. |

The first-priority category of human beings, for which
the trouble must be overcame - that's children.
I think that problem of childish trouble is one of the most complex.
Once I had got a great impression from a documentary film of a Georgian
director about juvenile delinquency in the Soviet Union While
analyzing the sources of child's crimes he showed that the most terrible
thing for young person is the loss of waiting of joy in the life, he
named such children "grey flowers". While talking with one of
teenagers he shuddered after the question: "You see, that
number of such young one's, as I am,
"the grey's", is growing all the time? Didn't you think,
what would happened, if number of us would be just greater than number
of one's like you?" Since that time I am thinking about this ... |

In the third place, to my mind, an interesting and a
noble action is to invest environmentally safe technologies and breaking
up production businesses into smaller units. The main trouble of
humanity is that all modern civilization was founded on processes of
concentration: all was concentrating - town dwellers in the cities,
chemical,
machine building, transport productions at one place, transport vehicles
were growing heavy and large, even imbalance in nutrition are based on
processes of concentrating of nutrients in portions of food. The Nature
is standing for distribution... We need to learn and use continuous
productions on a small scale and accurate functioning of lightened
transport vehicles. We need to seek new environmentally safe and cheap
energy resources and we must think of technologies, which should allow
us to dismantle the waste equipment at NPS. We need in every kind of
electricity promotion by the use of solar batteries, tidal
waves and wind.
We need in skilful developing of ocean spaces as a way of breaking up
production businesses into smaller units on dry land. |

In the fourth place, I would invest the supporting of
such non-traditional forms of people community. Like market network
structures, which leave apart the ugly mushroomed advertising mechanism,
such communities would helped effectively to positive processes of
humanity development by means of non-cooperation with clumsy state
mechanisms. I.e. I would tried and had influence upon the globalization
processes,
directing them towards real formation of noosphere, which was
dreamed about by Vernadsky. |

That's all. Finally I want to thank Mr. J. Soros,
who's activity brought me to think about this important subjects. |
