Russell Simmons "Super Rich"

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.

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.
