MJ was one person. i think he set the record for one person.

When I say big foundation, I mean the amount of money, donations, support, and charity they give. Most foundations that high profile people create are run by staff...but it's still funded by 1 person. Example...Bill and Melinda Gates foundation..that's a huge foundation...started by one person.

A foundation that I travel to NYC frequently to take care of...I'd say 100% of the members of this board who are in the United States would recognize the name....and at least 50% have eaten there...but it's one son of that family name that started this foundation that I do work for. The foundation itself happens to have a dozen or so staff. And the amount of money going out to support is staggering...they're catching up to Bill and Melinda Gates foundation fast.

i see. they must have meant at one time for MJ then, because i don't see 39 in this day and age being a record.
