07 Jan 09 Altruism Does Payoff

Andy Liu has a very interesting post on how you can achieve financial success. His prescription is to donate money to social causes. In Islam we have Zakah and Sadaqah. Zakah is the obligatory 2.5% of your wealth accumulated over a lunar year and Sadaqah is anything your conscience has allowed you to impart with in the path of charity.

Definitely a noteworthy prescription for any investor or entrepreneur. More comments about this post later.
