He gave half of his money to charity to help poor children live a happy life. Today, he still wears cheap shoes, clothes and drives a small car, but he is very pleased.
Up to now, Ming has funded some children from poor countries all over the world. The money has been used for children's study, food, medicine and clothing. Ming receives a report each year on the children's progress. They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.
