John Brown is an office worker. He lives in Washington(華盛頓)in America. When he was 23 years old, he inherited(繼承)$1,000,000. So he became a very rich man. His friends said he was so lucky that they didn't believe that it was true. But John Brown didn't feel very happy. After he graduated from the college, his friends began to look for their first jobs, but John didn't. He wanted to keep living a simple(簡樸的)life like everyone else.

Today John is 36 years old. Now John himself wears cheap shoes and clothes. He only owns a small car. But he feels very happy because he has helped 15 children from poor countries all over the world. He gives each child $200 a month. The money pays for the children's food, clothes and so on. John Brown can receive a report on the children's progress(進(jìn)步)every year.
