Do Not Confuse Thrillionaire With Trillionaire
What 's the difference do you ask?
Well, let me tell you in a few words.
A Thrillionaire is a person who knows the thrill of giving - and tell his or her story so that others will become inspired to become Thrillionaires.
As opposed to a Trillionaire who is a person loaded with $1 triilion dollars.
Make mine in American dollars please.

Meet Ellie Morse, A True Thirillionaire
For our first Thrillionaire, we are presenting Ellie Morse.
As described on The Better Hour website "She wins the first prize for her public service to raise money for "Invisible Children," for whom she provided supplies to several schools in Northern Uganda, the war-torn area where children have been kidnapped and left without parents, hope, provision, or education. Ellie initiated creative events, fairs, and projects at her school, and engaged many people in her community, not only to raise money, but also to raise awareness of the plight of the forgotten children of Uganda".
Congratulations to Ellie for a well deserved First Prize.
A Standing Ovation For Alexis
Another Inspiring Thrillionaire
All it took for Alex to spring into action and create "Cookies for Kids" to help hungry kids at a local Grand Bahama school, was a TV show that she watched with her mom.
Alex and a group of her girlfriends started to bake cookies and sold them and use the profits for helping the kids. She impressed quite a few people at the Rotary Club when she made a speech relating the experience.
Way to go girl!

Are There Any Trillionaires Out There?
Or Maybe A Few Billionaires
It looks like we are still waiting for our first trillionaire, but wait, we have a few
billionaires to showcase here.
They will have to fit the bill for now, until, maybe Bill Gates shows up
as the first trillionaire.
According to Forbes, there are 793 billionaires, down from 1,125 a year ago.
Let's profile a few here.
We all know about the Waltons, the Gates, and Warren Buffet, so here I'll just mention a few not so well-known.
Alexander Rovt made his fortune in fertilizers.
Joanne Rowling is the richest author in the world. Wow, I can't believe that Harry Potter is THAT popular.
