if 50 million people in the USA who work: 5 days a week and have the weekends off, were to work for 4 hours once a month like on saturdays from: 5am to 9am just once a month and they were to donate that money to an American charity assuming they were to get paid: $10 the hour for those 4 hours, they will donate: $24 Billion dollars every year to charity...

if the world did this with: 50 million people, it will: donate: $8 Billion dollars every year to charity....

again just food for thought...

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:

here is another food for thought...lets say: 50 million americans get: 30 days vacations...well whenever they get those: 30 days vacations if they were to work for 4 hours, just 4 hours it could be from: 5am to 9am just 1 time during those: 30 days vacations and donate those 4 hours to charity...assuming they will get paid: $10 an hour for those 4 hours, they will donate: $2 Billion dollars every year to charity...Those: $2 Billion dollars every year could be donated for example to the: breast cancer research or the breast cancer cause and diabetes cause/research...

and i was thinking those: $24 Billion dollars a year, if they were to place it in the stock market to earn interests for 1 year and they were to do this every year sort of delay it, they will still get: $24 Billion dollars every year but with an additional: $1.2 billion dollars every year from interests that could be donated to the: breast cancer research or the breast cancer cause and diabetes cause/research...if they want...

You can be throwing: $1.2 billion dollars eveeeeeeerrryyyy year out the window...

i was thinking those: $2 billion dollars a year that the world will make, jee those are: $60 Million dollars a year with interests...Those: $60 Million dollars a year with interests could go into building dentist clinics or veterinary clinics or dog racing tracks or huge swimming pools the size of racing cars circuit or night clubs or mobile dental clinics...or into Virtual Reality Research or video games research to improve the video game experience....or into creating a circus or into cleaning all the garbages on the seas or into creating a global radio station...

most of the time i does forget that you can run for 6 hours everyday 7 days a week, all year long for 20 plus years and still die on your 30th or 40th birthday because you didnt flauss your teeth often or didnt use mouthwash or didnt visit the dentists that regularly, thus the importance of dental clinics...
