Milton Petrie
The most Generous Man in the World.
Every morning, billionaire Milton Petrie walked from his New York
apartment and bought a newspaper from a very poor old man on the
street corner. One morning the man wasnt there. Petrie knew that he
was very sick in the city hospital. Immediately, he paid his hospital bill
and later, when the man died, Petrie paid for his funeral. The old man
was just one of many people that Milton Petrie helped with his money.
