Gareth Morgan

I have chosen Gareth Morgan to be my inspirational person.

Gareth Morgan is the father of Sam Morgan. Sam Morgan is the Founder of the one the most popular sites TradeMe. Mr Morgan helped his son develop the site in 1999. Then finally when  Sam was 29 he decided to sell his site which worth more than $750 million dollars. He gives most credit to his father because his father was an economist. An economist is someone who is good with money.

Gareth is not afraid of speaking his mind. Like what happened about the cats. He wanted every single cat that walked on other peoples properties to be taken to the SPCA . The cats were killing the birds and he did not like that. So he and his  voice his opinion openly.. That is nice how he cares about the birds. But it’s not nice how he wants all the cats to go to the pound.

People from UNICEF wanted Gareth to be an ambassador for them. He and his wife Jo Morgan inspected UNICEF’s work. He then finally decided he wouldn't let the children in the Solomon islands to go through poverty and poorness any more. Even though he was very rich he did not let that affect his thinking of the children in Solomon island. He put his job on the line to help build and renew schools for the children. To me that its very inspiring because he cares for the poor and the needy.

I have chosen Gareth Morgan to be my inspiring person because he is an inspiration to the people in Solomon islands. Him and I make a connection because he is not afraid to speak his mind like me. And he cares about the poor. Like me.

Hi Crystal your story about Gareth Morgan is interesting. Pity he does not like cats although he has one in the photo.
