A person can do a lot for the world with 10 trillion.
Could you give an example? :) I think it would actually be pretty hard to find ways to spend that much money. 10 trillion is an awful lot.

I don't claim to have the answers.. but I think it will take a lot more than money to solve these problems. That's assuming they can even be solved at all.
