Vegetarian Star

“I invest in things that I have faith in. For example, building a financial company (UniRush Financial Services) that serves people who were thrown away by the banks which developed a technology that speaks to the middle class. It has to be an idea that is aligned to the principles I live by. I don’t have any products that I don’t believe in. I won’t take part in the suffering of animals, exploitation of people or abuse of the planet. I can’t say that I’m a vegan and then own a steakhouse. It’s a karmic thing–you get what you give. It’s kind of nice when you’re serving the planet. I can go to sleep.”

Russell Simmons has released a book, Super Rich, an inspirational guide about finding wealth in both the spiritual and financial markets.

The vegan business mogul recently Tweeted to inspire his Twitter followers, asking them, “What would you do if you were Super Rich?”

One follower responded with, “I’m well on my way to being #superrich because I’m saving so many precious and innocent animals by not eating meat!!! :)”

The vegetarian financial plan not only saves animals, but also the environment. One study concluded that $20 million of the costs of fighting climate change could be saved in terms of reducing greenhouse gases and making use of land used for animal agriculture. It was estimated these changes would also lessen the need for energy saving technologies, such as clean coal.

And in terms of human health costs, the savings estimates are in the billions.
